Children’s Books
Stories with Purpose
Each story begins with something simple, and then builds into something that stays with you.
This collection of children’s books centers on ideas that are easy to understand yet meaningful enough to revisit. The goal is not to overwhelm, but to present truth in a way that feels natural for young readers.

About the Creators
Wayne Haufler
Wayne is the writer behind the story. His inspiration comes from time spent with his grandchildren and a desire to share meaningful ideas in a way children can understand. This is his first children’s book, created with a clear and thoughtful approach.
Michael Brooks
Michael brings the visual side of the story to life. With a background in Theatrical Design and Fine Art, he focuses on building characters and visuals that connect with both children and the whole family.
For Young Readers and Families
This children’s storybook is written so children can read it themselves, or have it read aloud as a bedtime story, or interact as a family with the activity presented at the end.
It’s often read more than once, and each time, something new stands out.
