Velvet Pumpkin Books is a storytelling home devoted to stories shaped by memory, imagination, and care. Our books span children’s literature, young adult fiction, and narrative nonfiction, but they share a common heart — a belief in the power of stories to connect us, challenge us, and help us see the world more clearly.


"I would rather sit on a pumpkin, and have it all to myself, than be crowded on a velvet cushion." - Henry David Thoreau
Our work explores the quiet threads that connect us — across generations, histories, and lived experience.
