While in the hospital, he had plenty of time to think about what really matters in life—family. Determined to share his strong family values with his grandchildren, Johnathan used his time in the hospital, and some colored pens and paper he received as a gift, to write a children’s story about sticking to your dreams. The result was Adventures of Little Bird: Pirate Dreams. Healed and eager to get back to his active life, he suffered an unfortunate motorcycle mishap.

Living your dreams, heeding your parents, and putting family first are the most important values that helped Captain Johnathan succeed in life. So, once he was back fishing on the F/V Time Bandit he took his free minutes during three months at sea to refine his books. A trilogy was born. In this installment, Little Bird joins up with the Crabs brothers to find the world greatest treasure, only to findul illustrations, along with direct story-telling, share important childhood lessons in fun, inspirational tales to be shared by readers young and old.
