Hi, I’m Stella Mbatt
AUTHOR · SONGWRITER · TEACHER · MENTOR
I write children’s books and make music that inspires faith, hope and joy in everyday life. My heart is to encourage children and families with stories, songs and videos that remind them they are loved, they matter, and God is with them.
How I got here
-
Then
As a child, I loved getting lost in books and creating stories of my own. Long before any of this was work, it was the thing I did for the pleasure of it.
-
Now
That same love shapes everything I write, sing and create — from picture books that help children fall in love with reading, to songs that encourage people through every season of life. Stories and songs have always been my favourite way to point people towards hope, joy, and the God who never leaves us.
-
And in between
When I am not creating, you will usually find me with my family, enjoying a quiet cup of tea, or dreaming up the next story waiting to be told.

Three ways I tell a story
Books, music and video are the same work in three forms — each one made to leave somebody a little lighter than it found them.
Children’s Books
Seventeen stories across four reading levels, for ages 3 to 12 — the kind that teach quietly, build character, and are asked for again the next night.

Music
Songs that inspire faith, bring comfort and celebrate God’s goodness through every season — worship, family, gratitude and ordinary Tuesdays.
Listen to the music →
Videos
Read-alouds, songs and honest conversations, filmed at my desk — encouraging, creative and made for anyone who needs a lift today.

Stories with heart
Meaningful tales that teach and entertain, without ever talking down to a child.
Honest music
Songs built on real stories and real encouragement, not easy sentiment.
Faith, hope and wonder
Words and melodies that lift, and that point steadily towards God’s heart.
A few small things
Every book begins the same way
Every book, song and video begins with an idea, a prayer and a lot of heart.
I write the stories. I write the music. I record, I edit, and I do all of it with one goal in mind — to spread light, encourage faith, and remind people that they are never alone.
With love,Stella
Let’s stay connected
I would love to keep in touch — new books, new music, behind-the-scenes moments and the occasional surprise.
