Elumi is a little cloud who discovers that every feeling belongs — and that her brightest light has been inside her all along.

Pre-order details are coming soon.

Every feeling belongs

Sunny days, stormy days. And everything in between. There's room in your sky for all of it. You don't have to hide a feeling, hurry through it, or choose just one. Every part of you has a place here.

Tiny cloud. Big feelings. Lots of weather.

At bedtime

A gentle, rhyming read for winding down while supporting the sounds and patterns that build early literacy.

For big feelings

Gives children words and pictures for what they’re feeling — with visual ways to point, choose, and communicate when words are hard to find.

In the classroom

A starting point for teachers and counselors to explore emotions, early literacy, and communication in ways that welcome both spoken and nonverbal responses.

Elumi, a small smiling cloud

Meet Elumi

Elumi may be the tiniest cloud in the sky, but her feelings are anything but small. When Elumi is happy, sunshine spills through. When she's sad, raindrops fall. And when she gets nervous? You might hear a rumble in the sky.

She's curious, caring, wonderfully expressive — and learning that she doesn't have to change a single part of herself to belong.
