HERE’s THE STORY

Creating a picture book for children was something I'd thought about often over the years. But it wasn't until becoming a father that I finally gave it a try. The result was a 32-page celebration of imagination entitled Vander and the Red Balloon. Vander has since returned for three additional adventures in Picnic in the Park, Hooray!, Vander in Space, and Vander Goes to School.
