At R.S. Shepherd Books, we believe every child deserves to feel seen, valued, and inspired. We are a husband-and-wife writing duo creating inclusive children’s stories that celebrate feelings, courage, and differences.

Our books help families and classrooms talk about emotions, kindness, and self-confidence. Through characters like Bernard, who learns the power of sharing feelings, and Maya, who discovers her unique way of moving, we offer children stories that reflect real challenges with hope and joy.

• 📚 Social & Emotional Learning made fun

• 🌍 Diversity and inclusion at the heart of every story

• 💡 Tools for parents, teachers, and counselors

We’re more than authors we’re building a community that empowers the next generation of readers.

Together, let’s raise readers who lead with empathy, kindness, and courage.
