Welcome to a world where magic lives in everyday moments, and love holds every adventure.
“A masterpiece. I devoured every morsel of it, heart bursting and cheeks aching from grinning. This is a modern classic in the making, soul medicine disguised as a magical bedtime story. A lighthouse for sensitive souls, a warm hand for little ones navigating big feelings, and a loving invitation for grown-ups to re-attune to the magic within. Every page glows with heart, wonder, and Mama Mavros love.”

Meet Sammie Sunshine
Sammie Sunshine is a heart-centered children’s book series created to help little ones feel safe, supported, and deeply loved as they grow.
Through gentle magic, playful moments, and meaningful connection, Sammie’s stories explore big feelings in a way that feels comforting, empowering, and fun.
This first book invites children into a world where curiosity is celebrated, emotions are welcome, and love is always the guide.
The first Sammie Sunshine book arrives Spring 2026.
“What a whimsical, enchanting story! The moment with the Tree and The Keeper were poignant and touching. I felt emotional when Sammie's daddy had to go. As a parent myself, that was sad since we know how that feels, seeing our child wilt when special time has to pause. The whole story left me feeling warm and happy.”

Meet the author,
Jen Mavros is a writer, mother, wife, creator and lifelong storyteller who believes children already carry deep wisdom within them.
Before writing for littles, Jen spent years in the personal development space, supporting and helping to shape the journeys of thousands of beautiful souls through her work. She taught people how to bring their dreams to life, until motherhood revealed her most meaningful creation of all, her daughter.
From that love came Sammie Sunshine and the Realm of Hidden Magic, the first book in a heart-led children’s series arriving Spring 2026. A modern fairytale where deep, soulful truths unfold, emotions become empowerment, kindness moves, and sparkle meets soul.
Jen’s stories gently remind children that magic is not something to find or earn, but something they already carry within them. Through Sammie’s adventures, she explores connection, big feelings, intuitive knowing, and the quiet strength that grows when children learn to trust themselves.
After stepping away to start a family, Jen returns with a fresh, grounded, and deeply soulful perspective, now creating stories, tools, and thoughtful goodies designed especially for children and the grownups who love them.
This is just the beginning. The Sammie Sunshine universe continues to grow, with more books and heart-centered creations on the way.
“Sammie Sunshine is a wondrous, magical journey…will keep children glued to the page. ”
