A guided storytelling experience where children become active participants in the narrative.
A More Personal Way to Build Emotional Intelligence
Through interactive dialogue and creative prompts, children practice empathy, perspective-taking, and emotional regulation in a safe, imaginative space. Each session is tailored to the group’s needs, fostering connection and understanding through shared storytelling.
Each story circle blends structured learning objectives with organic, child-led exploration. Children leave with new tools for navigating emotions and relationships, all wrapped in the joy of a shared adventure.

Stories with heart
I’m Shannon, a special education teacher, mother, and creator of The Little Light Library. After 26 years in education, I created this series from a belief that children can explore big ideas when those ideas are wrapped in wonder. Through the luminous world of Sylvalume and its extraordinary creatures, I hope to create stories that brighten the little light inside each reader and inspire them to spread that light to others, making the world a better place.
