Whispers From Tanglewood

In a world that often feels too loud and too fast, Auntie Lala—a whimsical educator with a heart for old magic—follows a whispering wind deep into the forests of North Carolina. There, she discovers the Tanglewood Treehouse, a sanctuary of starlight, moss, and ancient books that has been waiting specifically for her.

​She isn't alone in her new home, however. Living on the porch (and occasionally hitched to her ankle) is Toby, a delightfully sassy toad whose grumpy "ribbits" only Auntie Lala can translate. Together with Benny, a gentle, honey-colored bear who guards the Treehouse doors, they welcome "Little Heroes" into a realm where imagination is the only key required.

​Each story follows Auntie Lala as she navigates the Tanglewood Troubles—mystical muddles that can only be solved with kindness, bravery, and a curious mind. It is a place where the wind knows your name, the trees have secrets to share, and every child is the hero of their own enchanted quest.
