Meet the Hearts Behind these Books

Hello! We’re Kyle Cardoso and Patricia Funaki—creators, explorers, and big believers in the magic of childhood wonder.

Patricia is a writer, educator, and Olivia’s proud mama. She finds pure happiness in watching little ones discover the world around them. Her passion for storytelling and celebrating different cultures shines through every page. Her dream is having all her books turn into Pixar movies.

Kyle is an entrepreneur, designer, and lifelong adventurer who studied languages to become an English and Chinese teacher. With a master’s degree in leadership and a heart full of curiosity, he loves writing and using illustrations to bring joyful stories to life. Together, we hope our books fill your hearts with joy and inspire your imagination, no matter where you are in the world.
