Two series, one family.
The Persephone & Brinley series is for the child with ADHD. Mazie's Side is for the sibling in the next chair. Same family, same honesty contract — a different seat at the table.
Persephone & Brinley
One picture book for each hard moment ADHD families actually live — fourteen in the series, each with a feeling named and a strategy your child picks herself.
Waiting Is the Hardest Part
It's Mazie's turn on the new tire swing. This is going to be the longest wait in history.
Persephone discovers the Popcorn Jobs — three things to do while waiting that turn the hardest minute into something she can actually handle.
One metaphor per book — a family language, built a moment at a time
The catalog grows with the reader. Each title takes one everyday hard moment and gives it a name your family can keep.
Covers are landing as the art is finished — books showing a placeholder are written and on the way.
Mazie's Side
A companion series told from Mazie's point of view — Persephone's little sister, the four-year-old everyone calls “the easy one.” For each moment Persephone has hers, there's a Mazie book that names what the same moment costs the sibling: the turn that gets swallowed, the rules that bend for her sister, the floor she learns to tiptoe on so nothing cracks. The feeling is always real. The antagonist is always the moment, never Persephone. And Mazie finds her own way through — with the help of her dolls, not a lesson from an adult.
It Was Supposed to Be My Turn
Mazie's turn on the tire swing dissolves into someone else's big feeling. The resentment-and-guilt knot, named and loosened.
