I write picture books where children feel safe, loved, and seen.
For families, carers, and classrooms.
Picture books for little hands.
Stories written by an author who believes children deserve words for feelings, bodies, and belonging. These books are made for real life, bedtime, classroom mats, car seats, and quiet moments where kids are learning how to be with themselves and with others. Each story is gentle, clear, and shaped to grow safety, care, and connection from the very beginning.
For the grown-ups in their world
-
For everyday moments, bedtime talks, playdates, and big feelings in small bodies.
These stories give you simple words to use when kids are learning about touch, feelings, and being with others. They fit into real life, the messy, loving, ordinary kind.
-
For group time, circle mats, calm corners, and classroom life.
Use these books to open gentle conversations about space, choice, listening, and care. They support social and emotional learning in a way children can see, hear, and copy.
-
For children who need safety, choice, and steady connection.
These stories offer language that respects bodies and feelings, and supports trust through clear, kind moments that can be repeated again and again.
