Stories for siblings to share
Molly & Sam
read together.
Then they play, talk and grow together.
Warm picture books for ages 3–6, designed so an older sibling can lead, a younger sibling can join in, and grown-ups get simple ideas that actually work at home.
Ages 3–6
Older reads • younger joins in
Parent-friendly extras
Read together, learn together & grow together.
A gentler way in
Parents don’t need another lecture. Children don’t either.
Molly & Sam use stories, play and simple family routines to make everyday topics easier to talk about. The first story explores screen time without turning screens into the villain.
Why Molly & Sam is different
One story. Two children. More ways to join in.
The book is the starting point, not the whole experience. Each title is built around shared reading, simple play and useful extras for families.

How to use the books
Make reading together feel like play.
A few tiny changes can turn one story into a shared sibling ritual.
1
Build a little reading den
Blankets, cushions and a cosy corner can make the moment feel special before the first page is even opened.
2
Give both children a job
The older one can read. The younger one can turn pages, point to objects and join in with big colourful words.
3
Keep the fun going
Use a colouring sheet or puzzle afterwards so the book becomes an experience, not just ten minutes of reading.

Quick parent questions
Simple answers.
What age are Molly & Sam books for?
They are designed primarily for children aged 3–6, especially families where an older child can help a younger sibling join in.
Do I need two children to enjoy them?
No. They still work perfectly as ordinary picture books with a parent, grandparent, carer or friend reading with one child.
Are the books anti-screen?
No. The first book is about balance, family choices and making room for play and connection alongside screens.
Where will the free printables live?
They will be available here at mollyandsam.com as the final resources are released.
