Rosie & Raven: An Interactive Animated Fairytale

When Rosie, a kind-hearted young fairy, gets stranded outside her world in a freezing snowstorm, she must enlist the help of Raven, a lonely little girl, to help her get home. But the only path back to Fairyworld is through a fully bloomed rose, and together, the duo must discover the secret that will coax one last late-blooming rose bud to open and allow for Rosie's safe return to her world.

Rosie & Raven is a groundbreaking children's book that combines the magic of storytelling with the benefits of mindfulness, using Augmented Reality to bring the illustrations to life in a way traditional books can't. By viewing the activated pages through a smartphone or tablet, young readers and their parents can see characters, scenes, and hidden worlds pop off the page and move in real time. This interactive experience allows children to dive deeper into Rosie and Raven's magical world, engaging their imaginations while gently introducing them to mindfulness practices.

While the book can be read and enjoyed in entirety without the use of any screens, the exercises and prompts are reinforced by short animations that help convey the deeper messages within the story. The app is free and takes a few seconds to download.
