Sparkle Books

Real Stories. Real Children. Real Magic.

Welcome to the world of Sparkle and Malachi - a collection of heartfelt children's stories inspired by real-life adventures, challenges and love between a mother and her two children.

My name is Nelsy Masemola, a proud South African mother and storyteller. I began writing these stories to capture the special moments I shared with my children – from everyday joys to deeper lessons about identity, love, and resilience. Each book is a tribute to their lives and the unique journey of motherhood.

The name Nelsy honours my late grandmother, whose wisdom and warmth continue to guide me. Her spirit lives on in the stories I share, just as my children’s laughter, questions, and imagination fill each page.

These are not just books. They are memories turned into pages. And I hope your children love reading them as much as I loved living them.

Thank you for supporting a self-published South African author and for letting my family’s stories become a part of yours.
