Welcome to Spinning Wheel Stories
Where stories come to life through the combined magic of words, illustrations, and the creative spirit.

Meet Reba!
Meet Reba, a rhino with a big heart, a bold spirit, and a teeny-tiny bird always along for the ride. A gentle adventure about doing things your own way—with a little help from a feathered friend. Reba’s ready to take on the world—on her own terms. But when a wobbly bike ride calls for a bit of backup, this brave little rhino learns that flying solo doesn’t mean going at it alone.
