Sadie, the Story Lady is a cozy, permission-based read-aloud YouTube channel where children’s picture books are shared with warmth and care. I’m a one-woman creator who loves helping families, caregivers, and classrooms discover great stories—especially from indie and small-press authors.
If your book feels like a good fit, here’s what to know.
📚 What I’m Looking For
- Children’s picture books (generally ages 3–8)
- Family-friendly, classroom-safe stories
- Books that work well as read-alouds
- Indie authors, illustrators, and small presses welcome
📄 Preferred Format
To keep things manageable, digital submissions are strongly preferred:
- PDF of your book
- or a Kindle Unlimited / digital preview link
📦 I typically do not request physical copies.
🎥 What a Feature Looks Like
If selected, your book is shared as:
- A warm, puppet-led read-aloud video on YouTube
- Posts, reels, pins on social media
- A simple blog post on my website
Videos are thoughtfully created but not highly produced.
🧡 Please Note
- Not all submissions can be selected
- Submission does not guarantee a feature
- I may not be able to respond to every request
Thank you for understanding—and for creating stories for kids.
