Meet The Plipalong Garden

Little friends.
Different kinds of wonder.

A shell, a pair of wings, a twitching nose.
Tap a friend and take a closer look.

A little snail beside a pool in a garden of green leaves and peach flowers.

A small shell. A big day.

Take the slow
way around.

There’s so much to notice when you’re little. A leaf above you. A drop beside you. A friend just around the bend.

What would you stop to look at?

For the grown-up beside the little reader

Read a sound.
Leave a pause.

You do not have to perform every word. Share a sound, wait a moment, and follow what catches your child’s eye. A tiny story can make room for an unhurried moment together.

A few ways to read together
  1. 01

    Let the sound linger.

    Try a soft “swish” or a little “plip.” Your child can listen, echo it, or simply look.

  2. 02

    Notice one small thing.

    A leaf, a ripple, a pair of wings. Point if you like; there is no right answer to find.

  3. 03

    Follow their pace.

    Repeat a favorite page, skip ahead, or stop for now. The book will be here when you return.

The name behind the little worlds

Hello,
I’m Rowan Quillovelle.

Creating stories and adventures
for curious kids.

This is a home for expressive animal friends, tiny imaginative places, and the questions that make a little world feel big.

The Plipalong Garden is the first stop: a shared world seen through six animal friends. Beyond the garden, there is room for new settings, new questions, and stories for different stages of childhood.

A few useful answers

Before you turn
the first page.

When can I buy Swish, Plip, and You?

The book is currently in publication review. There is no confirmed release date yet. The website and Instagram will be updated when the listing is live.

Who is The Plipalong Garden for?

This first series is for toddlers ages 1–3 and the grown-ups who read with them. That age range belongs to this series; Rowan’s wider author world leaves room for other ages and kinds of stories.

Are all six books available?

Not yet. Snail’s story is first. Frog is planned next, followed by Bee, Sparrow, Rabbit, and Butterfly. The five future titles are working titles.
