Welcome

Welcome to Sparkling Stories, the home of short stories for children!

Sparkling Stories is a place where short stories for children can be bought and sold online. So if you're looking for new stories to fire a child's imagination, take a look around.

The stories are split into different categories such as fantasy, adventure and nonsense, so you can easily find the type of tales you want. Or you can use the search facility if you need something specific - 'Daddy, I want a new princess story!'

Keeping up with children’s appetite for exciting stories doesn’t have to cost the world. Use this site to introduce your children to new stories, give feedback to up and coming authors, exchange views with others and personalise stories to include your children’s names!
