Righteous Ray-Ray Has a Bad Day

In this children’s book series the main character “Ray-Ray” goes thru a series of events that will test any child, but he remains “Righteous”. Ray-Ray also lives by one of the author’s favorite mottos “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” The author decided on this concept because he has realized that many children are not exposed to models of respect in their young lives. Also, the author wants to show them a child that is secure with who he is, loves himself, and overcomes many trials and tribulations; yet he is respectful, positive, has goals, dreams, and never stops pursuing them. He is excited about the opportunity to touch many children’s lives. He was given the name “Ray-Ray” because that is the author’s nickname, and the author simply thought that it would peak people’s interest. Also, there are some negative stereotypes associated with the name therefore, the author wanted to put the name in a positive light.
