Welcome to our little studio.

We’re Brad and Kristi Montague.

From our small-town studio in Tennessee, we make stories, books, experiences, and big-hearted projects for kids and former kids.

Our work has traveled from our space here to classrooms to boardrooms, libraries to theaters, living rooms to stages around the world! Wherever our work ends up, it’s pretty much always trying to do the same thing:

We’re usually trying to make something that makes people want to make something, too.

We believe imagination is for everyone, kindness is a superpower, making things is one of the best ways to understand the world, AND good things are better when they’re shared.

Right now, we’re booking speaking events, creative collaborations, and meaningful partnerships for 2025-2026. Are you with us?

Lead with heart. Make with joy. Repeat.

A few of the people we’ve loved teaming up with:
