 Why do I write children's books?

Lecture a child about morality, and watch their eyes glaze over. But wrap those same lessons in a captivating tale, and they'll absorb every word without realizing they're learning.

My own love affair with books began in childhood, sitting beside my father as he opened worlds through stories. Though I initially crafted novels for adults, alternate histories and magical realism, everything changed when a friend lamented the scarcity of children's books that both entertained and inspired.

That conversation sparked my journey into children's literature, creating tales where friendship, acceptance, and compassion bloom naturally through adventures with characters who face bullies, embrace differences, and discover the danger of hasty judgments.
