Stories that sneak in
the good stuff.

"I wanted to write stories that
reflect God's truths —
softly, the way little hearts receive them."

One night I was reading my son a book about dirt — he knew every word — and I thought, surely I could fill him up with something better than that. On a quiet trip soon after, with my Bible in my lap, I realized I hadn’t been still in ten years. I started writing, and by the time I flew home I had three: Joy, Kind, and Still. My mother Trisha — an oil painter who taught herself watercolor for these books — paints every page by hand. I write every word. Four virtues, from a kitchen table in Nashville. I want to be an old lady still writing children’s books.

— with love, Caroline
