HOUSE RHYMAUN

Small stories. Brave words.

Picture books for ages 3–7 and the grown-ups who read beside them. Each title turns one child-sized moment into a warm, concise story.

Five new family adventures are here: a windy-day picnic, a day of magic, a bookstore visit, a dinner-table date, and an aquarium adventure.

Bella Bee & Emma Elle: A Table for Four cover

Family time

Bella Bee & Emma Elle: A Table for Four

Date night has four places at the table. A napkin becomes a sleepy shark, a thank-you game brings everyone closer, and one stubborn crumb steals the show.

Three ways to make a small story last.

Before

Look at the cover together. Ask what your child notices and what might happen next.

During

Pause when a face or choice changes. “What do you think their body is telling them?” is often plenty.

After

Choose one phrase to practice playfully. Children do not need to perform a lesson.
