The beautiful Saffron. If the signalman ever had a favorite, it was Saffron. Her head always telling her to rush ahead, her heart making her hold back for her friends.

Brackenlowe Halt was built from a simple belief: that children and grown-ups alike need a quiet place to return to. A place where small things matter. Where kindness is not weakness. Where stories are gentle, the world is coherent, and the lamp is always kept burning. #booksky #KidLitArt

We are hoping to build a storyworld for children, any help or advice is always welcome.
