Storybook Code™ is a gentle storytelling system created by author Sara Claire — designed to extend the experience of a book beyond the page.

Within select stories, small visual markers invite readers to access optional audio narration, allowing the story to be heard as well as read. This added layer offers comfort, reassurance, and a sense of connection — particularly for children who enjoy listening, or for moments when reading together feels more natural than reading alone.

Storybook Code™ is not designed to replace the physical book. Instead, it complements it — offering a quiet, supportive presence that deepens the emotional experience of the story.

The system is intentionally simple, calm, and unobtrusive. It exists to serve the story, not distract from it.

Storybook Code™ appears across multiple Sara Claire projects, including Chef’s Kiss Kitty™, and continues to evolve as a way of creating stories that feel held, accessible, and gently alive.

Storybook Code™ is a gentle interactive storytelling system by Sara Claire that allows stories to be experienced beyond the page through calm, optional audio narration.
