STORIES SHAPE HOW CHILDREN SEE THE WORLD.
And we want to make that world bigger.
OUR MISSION
We believe children deserve stories beyond stereotypes.
Girls can be captains, explorers and adventurers. Boys can be sensitive, cautious or scared. Characters can look different, come from different places and bring different strengths — without those differences needing to become the story.
We want children to grow up with characters who make their world feel bigger, not smaller.
Pirates instead of princesses.
A heroine beyond clichés.
The people behind the worlds
Ilvie Little & Friends was founded by writer, director and visual artist Susanne Stemmer.
With more than 25 years of experience in visual storytelling and production, Susanne brings together writers, illustrators, designers, animators, developers, composers, performers and production specialists to turn ideas into story worlds.
Some have been part of our journey for years. Others join for a particular project. What connects us is a shared belief in stories made with imagination, curiosity and care.
