About Us
Hartman Family Media is a creative studio on a mission to expand minds and open hearts. We craft stories and conversations that encourage kids and adults to wonder, imagine, and wake up to the bigger picture of who we are. Through our books and the Grounded Galactic Twins Podcast, we’re helping the next generation grow with compassion, curiosity, and courage to think differently.
Our goal is to help every human—small or tall—Reflect, Realize, and Revolutionize.
This concept, that we call the Three R's, is the foundation for everything we do. In an unpredictable world driven by fast-paced technology and growing division and fear, we encourage everyone to pause and ask, "Why?" When we intentionally slow down to Reflect, we can begin making Realizations, and from there, use those insights to Revolutionize our lives, both individually and collectively.
Thank you for being on this journey with us as we awaken to our true selves and ascend to a peaceful, unified future.

What a great book! This writing is a gentle way to introduce ET's and their benevolent intention to the children of the world. I loved the content and I enjoyed the illustrations depicted of love between family and friends. Allison's hopeful and touching summary of; the intention of ET's, the future of humanity and the possibilities for the Earth was well-written and received. Well done!

I really love this book as it introduces the idea of ETs ever present and gentle assistance and the book is also very gentle and perfect for young children or for parents to tuck in their children before bed.

Really cute story with beautiful and colourful illustrations and a lovely message about taking care of each other and the planet. My daughter really enjoyed reading this book.

I can see the brilliant little minds of children working vigorously as they read this book... visualizing, exploring, and internalizing the massive concept of off-world friends finally making themselves known. With a perfect blend of text and illustration, it allows the child to reason, and doesn't tell them WHAT to think. This book is conversations between individuals. Children are prompted to make connections, to feel empathy for each other, to teach and learn, to give and receive love, and perhaps best of all, to foresee a bright future. They learn that they are not helpless bystanders, but may actively take part by learning solutions to help prepare others, to lessen the fear, and maximize the mutual benefit. Definitely 5 stars!
Life isn't about having all the answers. It's about asking the right questions.
