Stories

Picture books and series for kids.

Every story here resolves inside the story — nothing scary is left hanging at bedtime. These are the same characters and places our free printables draw from, so a child who colors Mia or traces with Keyo already knows the crew when they meet them on the page.

We write for ages 5–8: short chapters a grown-up can read aloud in a few minutes, clear morals without lecturing, and a bakery full of helpers who make ordinary messes and fix them together. No cliffhangers overnight. No mean jokes at a child's expense. The worksheets come first on this site; the stories are the world those worksheets live in.

Series on the shelf

One series is live today. More will join as they are ready — we do not publish a placeholder series just to fill a grid.

How stories and worksheets fit together

Keyo & the Lost Recipes is a Magical Bakery where every problem has a recipe. The free colouring pack, mazes and tracing pages on the worksheets side are drawn from that same crew — so practice time and story time point at the same friends. When Book 1 is ready, it will be the same twenty chapters the animated series and the printables already share, not a separate fork of the plot.

Prefer to start with something to print tonight? Browse free worksheets by skill or age, then come back here when you want the characters behind them.

Each character page introduces who they are, how they behave in the bakery, and what a grown-up might notice a child taking from them — without spoiling the season arc. Meet the full Bakery Crew, or jump straight to Mia, Keyo, Crumble and the others from the series cast list. The stories resolve inside the story; the worksheets are free to print as many times as you like at home or in the classroom.
