We connect families and children to nature, wonder, and the magic of being through beautiful books
Books play a huge part in all children’s lives. Numerous studies have also shown that reading to a child as little as twenty minutes per week will not only result in stronger readers but ones who carry a love of literature into adulthood. But just as important as having quality books available for young readers is the ability for them to be able to “see themselves” within the pages of
As the team at Audrey Press have traveled the journey of publishing the new and unique diverse children’s book, Sissy Goes Tiny by Rebecca Flansburg and B.A. Norrgard over the last year, we’ve had the chance to learn and understand the life choices that go along with choosing to live in a home that is under 399 square feet.

FACT: Girls quit sports 6x the rate of boys. Based on this knowledge, two moms put their creative heads together to pen a book that has parents, coaches, and volunteer coaches clamoring for more.

Sometimes, creativity comes from the most unexpected places. But that’s the thing about creativity…one minute your brain is void of any ideas and the next, creativity sneaks up on you and catches you by surprise. Some people call it their “ah-HA” moment. The “ah-AH” moment for new authors Rebecca Flansburg and B.A. Norrgard started as a “what if?” conversation between the two long-time friends. It was the summer of 2018
Life can be hard. We all know that. But we all also know that if we don’t take the time to hear our own voices and reach out for more meaning, we will be swept up in the world filled with obligations and fear. But what if the travels you take, even if it’s to your own backyard, offered a deeper meaning and a chance to discover new peace and
