About the Pea & Carrot Series

Gentle stories where little feelings become safe, seen, and shared.

Each Pea & Carrot book begins with an ordinary moment; sunshine on a path, a small wobble, a pink cheek, and unfolds into something quietly meaningful. Feelings are not explained or fixed. They are simply noticed.

Created for calm conversations and cosy storytimes, the series invites families into a softer, slower world that children will want to return to again and again.
