Vale Tales Library is the central home for my children’s publishing work and expanding products for each collection. This web                                         site was created as a welcoming place for readers, families, and others to share their experiences with my books.

 It serves as a growing archive of reviews, reflections, and community feedback, helping me connect directly with those who encounter my work through gifted copies, or at home during story time.

 Vale Tales Library will one day be a brand for more than a single series. It began with Stories from Thistlow Vale, but my hope is for it to become an expanding brand that will one day include new collections I write—each with its own voice, world, and artistic style. This site not only showcases my books and their companion works (like the first Return to Thistlow Vale Coloring & Activity Book), but also reflects the brand’s long-term vision for merchandise, collaborations, and imaginative storytelling across multiple series. 

Although my early titles were released close together, many of these stories had been in development for years, and each new manuscript reflects a steady process of refinement and growth.

While I have independently built this foundation as an author and illustrator, I recognize that great stories grow best in partnership. Vale Tales Library stands as both a reader community and a professional gateway—welcoming collaboration with agents, publishers, and creative partners who share a passion for bringing children’s literature to life.
