Happiness,
no matter what happens
We make beautiful children’s books that show young people how to be happy with themselves, in the wonderful world we live in today.
I love how the book is so encouraging despite all the challenges that Little Tessa faces along the way to become an Astronaut. We learn the word "Perseverance" ...no matter how hard it is, as long as you work toward it you’ll achieve it one day !

Our books
Squirrel and the Three Bears
Enjoying autumn seemed like a great plan. But when the snow sets in, Squirrel must do whatever it takes to get ready for the cold. Will she dare to ask for help?
Squirrel is far from perfect, but we learn to love her for this. She is the only Squirrel brave enough to approach the Bears, who end up being much friendlier than we would expect. This is a book about how asking for help is actually the most courageous thing you can do.
The Girl Who Walked to the Moon
Little Tessa dreams of being the first woman to land on the moon.
After her rocket made from boxes gets her off to a slow start, Tessa sets off on an epic adventure around the world to find out how to make her moon dream come true. Ancient moon rituals from three different cultures grant her the wisdom she was missing, but will she be able to put it into practice?
Queen of the stars
Little Tessa is in such a hurry to be the first woman on the moon, she forgets to notice the stars along the way.
Will she slow down enough to remember
why she launched into space in the first place?
In this heart warming misadventure Tessa and her band of Argonauts come face to face with the strongest force in the universe,
Love.
Will they conquer all?
