...THIS IS WHY.

There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing a child enjoying one of my books. I adored reading books to my own children, when they were little. Now I get a lot of satisfaction watching a new generation of children enjoy MY books. What a thrill!


 

Why do I write children’s books?

    Celebrate the imagination—and the love between father and son—with a fun, rhyming, and totally original picture book. On a hot summer’s day, a young boy playfully sets out on a “crocodaddy hunt” in the lake. Following the creature’s shadow, dark and wet, he’s soon taking a wild ride on the grinning croc’s back. And when they leave the water, something wonderful happens: Crocodaddy transforms into…just DADDY.
