Book One · Arriving October 10, 2026

The Inn That Remembers

A warm, faith-filled family adventure where an old inn keeps more than memories—and one curious rabbit knows which door to open next.

A doorway into wonder

Some places remember the people who loved them.

Mama Bonita and her children—Ari, Ella, and Fia—arrive at a beautiful old inn carrying the ordinary questions of family life. But the inn is listening. Its rooms hold echoes, its doors hold choices, and Paulie the rabbit seems to know far more than he says.

What begins as a family visit opens into a gentle mystery about courage, safety, belonging, and the quiet ways faith helps us find our way home.

“One thing led to another…”

Created as a read-aloud for children ages 4–9, the story leaves room for laughter, questions, conversation, and the kind of wonder families carry long after the last page.

The heart behind the holes

A story born from real family wonder.

Louis Glenn Rabbit Holes grew from the questions, detours, and unexpected discoveries Barbara G. Matos shared with her three children. Those real moments became the emotional compass for a fictional world where children are listened to, families face the unknown together, and every rabbit hole can lead somewhere meaningful.

The series carries the name of Barbara’s grandfather, Louis Glenn—a family thread joining memory, imagination, and the hope of leaving something beautiful for the next generation.
