About the Author

Meet John, the guy behind this collection of whimsical animal tales. Though he came from a technical background, one fateful day walking his dog Gero sparked a creative revelation. A lightbulb went off and John envisioned combining his analytical skills with his silly imagination to craft children's books.

Nearly a year and nine tales later, John's vision has come to fruition! But how did this tech-savvy dog lover tap into his inner storyteller? The secret lies with the animals themselves.

John observes the unique personalities of creatures great and small, from his quirky Shih Tzu Gero to a pug actually named Elvis. Every furry friend has their own spirit that inspires John. He realized each animal has a story waiting to be told if you just gaze into their eyes.
