The Story
Inside a hidden forest, there is a tree filled with glowing leaves. Each leaf holds something real: a worry, a hope, a beleaf. When one begins to tremble, Flicker the fox and his friends follow its glow…to help those in need.
Why Families Love this Story
Because sometimes children don’t have the words…this story helps them find them softly, safely, and in their own time. Families describe the book in just one word: “Engaging,” “Beautiful,” “Eye-opening,” “Imaginative,” and “Loved.”

The Heart of the Story
At the end of every journey, a new leaf grows. It glows softly - not because everything is solved, but because something new has taken root: a new beleaf.
Storytime Made Simple
For the quiet moments - before bed, after a long day, or when something feels hard to say. This is a story you’ll return to again and again.
The Story is Starting to Travel…
What started as quiet moments between cities, between shows, between everything is beginning to reach more families than I ever imagined. A story about belonging… about feelings we don’t always have words for…about the quiet truth that you matter. And now, it’s moving beyond the forest— into real homes, real conversations, real lives.
Some stories stay with you. Some you can hold.
Flicker is stepping off the page and into the real world. Soft, bright, and full of heart, this little spark of imagination is a quiet reminder that every child’s story matters. Every Flicker helps Tatro Toys share more love, inclusion, and belonging through play. Flicker is ready.
A Signed Copy, From My Hands to Yours
For families who want something to hold onto after the story ends… I’ve set aside a small number of signed copies of Flicker and the Beleaf Tree. Each one is signed and carefully packed - a simple way to bring a little more love into your home.
A Place for Your Story
The Beleaf Tree holds more than just a story.
It holds real things people carry—
a worry,
a hope,
a beleaf.
This isn’t just a book.
It’s something I’m building in the real world.
I’m traveling across the country,
collecting stories people carry—
and turning them into something visible.
A living Beleaf Tree.
I’ve already started collecting them.
And you can place yours on it, too.
