Welcome to Little Porch Press

Where you will find stories made to be read aloud

At Little Porch Press, we believe stories belong where the pace is slow and the chairs are close—on porches, where books are read out loud, questions are asked, and wonder has room to grow.

A porch is a place between worlds: between home and beyond, between now and what’s possible. It’s where conversations stretch, imaginations spark, and children feel seen.

We believe that a well-told story can comfort, connect, and stay with you—just like a favorite chair on the porch. Our first book, Piper’s Little White Dog, is a celebration of family, stillness, and the quiet companionship of a loyal friend.

At Little Porch Press, we make books for these kinds of moments—quiet, shared, and real.

Our stories are told in poetry and rhythm, with warmth and honesty, for children and the grownups who read with them. Whether it’s a picture book at bedtime or a playful script performed in a living room, our books are meant to be read aloud, again and again.

Our Mission

  • To publish stories that make space—for imagination, for feeling, for connection.

  • To honor children with language that respects their intelligence and emotional world.

  • To create books that feel as lasting and familiar as the porch itself: a place to return to again and again.
