Gentle Stories for Little Hearts
Hello, I'm Penelope Willis. I write children's stories that bring comfort at bedtime, nurture empathy, and offer gentle reassurance to little ones missing someone they love. My stories weave kindness and imagination together, helping children feel safe, understood and never truly alone.
Feelings of Calm and Comfort
When children read my books, I hope they feel calm, comforted, and safe - as if the story is holding their hand. I want them to feel seen in their emotions, and gently reassured that whatever they are going through, they're not alone. I hope grown-ups reading alongside them feel it too - a quiet sense of stillness, connection, and understanding.
One rainy day, the view was misty and soft. Lottie snuggled into her hoodie and leaned her cheek against the cool glass. The town looked hushed. Even the waves were whispering. The red and white houses were there, the little blue boat and the lamppost. And the sea moved slowly. Lottie watched and listened and felt the quiet settle around her like a blanket.
