If your kids were anything like mine, bedtime was always an adventure. Trying to get five children under the age of 8 to brush their teeth, get in their jammies, and settle under the covers was a Herculean task at best.
I always had one fool-proof tool in my back pocket, however—one that stopped the sibling bickering, quieted the nervous energy, and held them enrapt, sending them off to slumber with images of fun and adventure...a good book.

Author Bio:
I am a father to a baby girl and hope to read to her just like I was read to when I was little. I grew up with a love of stories and creative settings and views. This gave me a love of adventure and appreciation for great imagery that I hope can be experienced by many parents and their children someday. It gave me a lot of happy memories and I hope to give the same happy memories to at least one child.
