A little about her

Alison Collins writes children's books that treat young readers as capable of big feelings and bigger ideas. She's also the voice behind a podcast built around honest, unhurried conversation, and a working artist whose paintings often start where her writing leaves off.

Before any of that, she's a wife and mother — and it shows in the work: warm, observant, and made for people to actually sit with.

"Every good story starts with paying attention."
