Dedicated to my (specifically and all in general) children, who while not making the joy-ney worth taking, have made it a heck of a lot more fun. Hugs and Endless Joy. Peace.
It has been my long standing feeling, from a very young (writerly) age that (if this can be said at all) the Truly Best Stories are those that satisfy our Childish Self. Whether this be myths, fables, parables, etc., etc., the stories we REALLY fall in love with have an air of whimsy, innocence, and childish playfulness.
And ever since, immersing myself in folklore (at The University of Texas) or Italo Calvino (around the time for my son (first child, the 2nd being my daughter) was born (2001), I have set as a goal for myself to master this Art Form - the Children's Story.
This book is my collection of children stories thus far written, with many more to come, and I hope will pluck and strum at that Strings of Your Heart, which enjoys/loves such things as Magical Realism, Fantasy, Dragons, and Fairies.
NOTE: This is FULLY INTENDED to be read WITH, TO, and BY children.
