Born and raised in California to a classroom teacher and a software engineer, Alex spent his whole childhood (which has lasted several decades and is still going strong) consuming as much literature as he could. Alex has read everything from children's illustrated books to sci-fi novels, newspaper comic strips to westerns and mysteries, and it's all influenced his creative will. Alex has worked with children with special needs for 15 years, and the fast pace and high demand of public school education has taught him how to collaborate with every personality type, and how important it is to speak with integrity and follow up words with action. He hopes to use his artistic ability and creative resourcefulness to present the wonder of reading to generations to come.
