Writing 'The Wanderer' was the most fun I've had writing a children's book. Living in several different countries and visiting many more has helped mold a more universal perspective that I hope will be visible in the writing. Hopefully you will enjoy not only the new direction of the poems, but the new illustrations as well. Thanks again for your support!
