Welcome to a world of quiet magic, gentle creatures, and stories that feel like coming home.

Tales of The Glen is a collection of eight heartwarming fireside tales set in a timeless woodland where folklore, nature, and kindness weave together into something tender, whimsical, and true.

Each story is accompanied by a full-page illustration, and the book includes 22 enchanting illustrations in total, bringing the characters and world of The Glen to life in full colour and charm. Between the stories, Mouse-wise, warm, and ever-chatty-welcomes you in with gentle interludes that feel like a fireside chat with an old friend.

In The Glen, the tea never runs out, the frost leaves secret patterns on the windows, and someone is always ready with a tale to soothe your soul.

You'll meet Rabbit-steady and kind, with his hooded cloak and quiet courage. You'll sit beside Mouse, who always knows just the right story to tell. You'll hear the ancient voices of the Frosty Council, witness the first ever sunrise, and walk with the mysterious Heart of The Glen, who carries the peace of the land in her hands.

These are stories of comfort and wonder-tales to be read by candlelight, shared at bedtime, or carried in your heart like a charm against the cold.

With poetic prose, nostalgic storytelling, and a tone that echoes classic children's literature, this book is perfect for:

  • Lovers of whimsical fiction, fantasy, and timeless folktales
  • Readers seeking gentle, comforting bedtime stories and slow-living tales
  • Fans of heartwarming animal stories with a soulful, nostalgic touch
  • Anyone who believes in the quiet magic of lamplight, autumn leaves, and long walks in the woods

If you've ever longed for a peaceful place where your name is always known, The Glen is waiting. It always has been.

Come closer, Best Beloved. The kettle's on. There's a story to tell.

About the Author

Victoria Beata is a storyteller and creative artist who creates heartwarming, whimsical illustrated tales inspired by nature, folklore, and classic storytelling traditions. With a deep love for small moments of wonder, her work offers comfort, nostalgia, and a quiet sense of belonging. Drawing from Celtic heritage and the landscapes of the Isle of Man, she brings to life the voices of nature, where the wind whispers, the trees remember, and even the frost has a story to tell. Her stories bring calm and peace to those who need it most, offering a quiet refuge from the world's rush. With a lyrical style that soothes the mind and stirs the soul, her tales transport minds, awaken forgotten joys, and open hearts to the moment's beauty. Whether a child discovering the world for the first time, a carer pausing for breath, or a weary heart seeking rest, her stories carry the fresh air of creativity, the warmth of nostalgia, and the quiet magic of belonging. The Glen is always waiting, Best Beloved, ready to bring light, warmth, and wonder whenever needed. Discover more at www.VictoriaBeata.com
