At Growing In Love, we believe that every child deserves to feel seen, heard, valued, and deeply loved.
What began as a simple idea between a mother , her daughters, and her nieces grew into a meaningful mission: helping families strengthen their relationships through love, communication, and emotional understanding.
The Growing In Love series was created by Isabella Hassan, her daughters and her nieces to introduce children to the Five Love Languages in a way that is engaging, age-appropriate, and easy for families to apply in everyday life. Through heartwarming stories, relatable characters, and lovable animal friends, our books help children understand their emotions, recognize how they receive love, and learn how to express love to others.
More than just a collection of children’s books, Growing In Love is a family-centered movement dedicated to nurturing confidence, empathy, kindness, and connection. We believe that when children understand their own hearts and feel secure in the love around them, they develop the foundation needed to thrive throughout their lives.
Growing In Love is more than a children’s book series—it’s a family project created with love, inspired by real relationships, and designed to help families build stronger emotional connections.
At the heart of our stories are two sisters, Krystal and Chelsie, whose families inspired the characters and lessons found throughout the series. Together, they share a close family bond and a commitment to helping children understand love, kindness, communication, and emotional growth.
Chelsie is the mother of Claire and Chloe. Claire is the older sister, known for her thoughtful nature, creativity, and wisdom. Chloe is the youngest sister, full of curiosity, joy, and imagination. Their relationship reflects the special bond between siblings as they learn, grow, and support one another.
Krystal is the mother of Katy and Kadry. Katy is the oldest sister, confident, compassionate, and a natural leader. Kadry is the younger sister, adventurous, brave, and full of heart. Together, they demonstrate the importance of family, encouragement, and understanding.
Throughout the Growing In Love series, these four girls learn valuable lessons about friendship, self-confidence, empathy, communication, and the many ways people give and receive love. Their experiences are brought to life alongside a lovable cast of animal companions who help teach important lessons through fun adventures and meaningful moments.
What makes Growing In Love unique is that it was created as a family collaboration. Isabella Hassan worked alongside her daughters and family members to create stories that feel authentic, relatable, and heartfelt. The series is built on real family values, real relationships, and a shared belief that every child deserves to feel seen, heard, understood, and deeply loved.
Our mission is to provide families with tools, stories, and resources that encourage meaningful conversations, stronger relationships, and lasting memories.
Together, we are helping children grow in love—one story, one conversation, and one family at a time.
Our mission is simple:
To help children and families build stronger relationships through love, communication, emotional awareness, and meaningful connection.
We believe that when families learn to understand one another’s hearts, they create a foundation of love that lasts a lifetime.
