Meet the imagination behind the stories

Hello, I'm Hayley Joy.

Benny's story began in my AI Playground, where big imagination, storytelling and clever technology came together to create something full of heart.

Every Imagined by Hayley Joy collection invites children to colour, explore and journey alongside a character who reminds them that we all think, feel and shine in different ways.
