R.A. Stone is a devoted storyteller with a heart for family, faith, and the magic of bedtime traditions. Inspired by the gentle rhythms of daily life and the quiet wonder of a child’s imagination, he wrote Papa Bear’s Prayer to create a space where parents and little ones can connect, reflect, and share meaningful moments before sleep. R.A. believes that stories are more than words on a page — they are bridges to love, comfort, and treasured memories.

The illustrations in Papa Bear’s Prayer are lovingly crafted by his mother, Mamma J, whose warm artistry brings each scene to life with heart and charm. With a lifelong passion for visual storytelling, she infuses every image with tenderness and wonder, perfectly capturing the spirit of the story and the bond between parent and child.

Together, R.A. Stone and Mamma J have created a book that celebrates those peaceful moments before bedtime — a story meant to be read softly, enjoyed deeply, and remembered forever.
