Our Story
The Children’s Book Garden began in 2020 with S. Hauer’s first story, Carlos the Cold Cactus. After seeing the great need for fun and uplifting stories for children that explore truth and beauty without agendas, S. Hauer set out to create. Her second tale Mommy, Why Do Butterflies Fly? released this spring. There is a special emphasis on the illustrations to bring the best in beauty to children, paired with delightfully worded tales.
