About Stoneywood Publishing
Stoneywood Publishing creates children’s books that are thoughtfully crafted, emotionally grounded, and paced with care. Our narratives are designed to help children navigate big feelings, new experiences, and everyday challenges with honesty and heart. Each book is developed with intention and a deep respect for childhood—making space for reflection, meaningful conversation, and quiet growth. We believe books can shape character without preaching, offering guidance while preserving a sense of wonder.
Meet the Founder
The establishment of Stoneywood Publishing represents the realization of a lifelong aspiration—bringing children’s books to life in a thoughtful, purposeful, and enduring way for its founder, Nedra Cobb.
With her only child now in college, Nedra returned to writing after intentionally setting it aside during years devoted to raising her family and building a corporate career. Creative by nature and grounded in professional discipline, she brings both voice and structure to the work behind Stoneywood Publishing.
Supporting Educators
​Select Stoneywood Publishing titles are accompanied by optional, story-inspired learning resources designed for parents and educators who wish to explore themes such as honesty, responsibility, and character development in age-appropriate ways. These materials are intended to support thoughtful discussion and reflection while allowing the stories to remain at the center.
Our Vison
Our vision is the ongoing establishment of a trusted body of children’s books that families and educators return to for generations — stories that feel steady, relevant, and rooted in the values that endure, even as the world around them continues to change.
