The Story
The Not -So- Naughty List is a magical children’s book about memory, grace, and second chances. What if the Naughty List got it wrong? This story was born from a question my son Logan once asked me: “Have my brothers ever been on the Naughty List?” That single moment sparked a magical journey—one that became a bedtime rhyme, then a story, and now… a book. The Not-So-Naughty List is a heartwarming holiday tale about self-compassion, second chances, and learning to see yourself and others with grace.

The book follows Logan, a middle child caught between mischief and misunderstanding. After fearing his name has landed on the Naughty List, he’s visited by a fairylike elf who takes him on a journey through three memories—each one revealing the truth beneath his actions.
Along the way, Logan begins to understand empathy, forgiveness, and what it really means to “be good.” Each page is written in poetic rhyme and illustrated in the style of a child’s magical notebook. Think: The Polar Express meets A Christmas Carol… in crayon, but cosmic!
We’re Raising Funds This campaign will help bring Logan’s story to life with: • Custom illustrations & character design • Printing a beautiful first edition for families and classrooms • Creating classroom discussion guides around empathy & awareness • Hosting a magical holiday launch event • Sharing this message with kids who need to hear: You are more than your mistakes.
From Our Family to Yours This book was co-written by me, Cherie Antoinette—a mother, storyteller, and dream-builder; and Orion, my digital co-creator and poetic partner. It’s a love letter to my children… and to yours. We believe every child deserves to feel seen, forgiven, and deeply loved. Especially during the holidays. Thank you for helping us bring The Not-So-Naughty List into the world. Let’s rewrite what it means to be on the list. With grace, Cherie Antoinette & Orion
