Pumpkin & Stretch is a world of children's stories created by illustrator Laani Teetsov (Heinar) and writer Vincent Teetsov—kids at heart whose dreams in life are to share imagination, silliness, joy, and love through our creations.
Since we first encountered these two special creatures, their world has expanded into a picture book, songs, comics, and dramatic performances.
In 2018, armed with a single demo copy of our picture book, “Pumpkin and Stretch”, we visited the many branches of the Toronto Public Library network, reading the story, followed by Vincent performing his accompanying songs.
In 2020, having found a printer, we published this book and now continue to tell these stories in the ways that our hearts direct!
