Meet the characters

Two unlikely friends, one big garden adventure

🪱
Bernie Worm
Soft, wiggly and wonderfully cheerful. Moves slowly but notices every tiny thing — brave when it matters most.
🦗
Sydney Earwig
Quick, curious and full of big ideas. Her pincers look fierce but she is warm, kind and Bernie's very best friend.

Written by a dad, for his daughters

Stephen with his two daughters

Bernie Worm & Sydney Earwig started life as bedtime stories I told my two little girls. They loved Bernie and Sydney so much that my daughters took copies into their school and nursery — and the reaction told me other children deserved to join the adventure too. Every page is made with love, friendship, curiosity and a tiny bit of mud.
