Our story

In a tender moment, a child's plea echoed, "Nanna, I wish you could be here every night to read to me." That heartfelt desire, shared by Annette's granddoll Melody, ignited a spark within her. Annette’s granddoll wanting to hear her voice tugged at her heart strings. Sitting among Annette's plush toys, they pondered the possibility. "Maybe someone will create something so that I can," Annette reassured Melody. This conversation became the catalyst for our innovative solution.
