What this is
Pip & Dawn - the stories, the illustrations, the narration and the site that carries them - is an original work by A.J.Sharpe, made in an openly documented collaboration with AI tools. The words, pictures and recordings here belong to the author, and this page says what you may do with them without asking.
Freely given
You may read and listen as much as you like, and share links to any page. You may pass on unaltered copies of the official files - the text of the story, a page, a recording - for no charge. You may read the stories aloud to children, classes, libraries and anyone else, and print pages for a classroom, so long as no money changes hands. When you pass something on, say where it came from: Pip & Dawn by A.J.Sharpe - pip-and-dawn.com.
