Avra Davidoff

For as long as I can remember, I’ve had my nose in a book. Stories have always been my doorway to connection, imagination, and inspiration—and now I write them to share that same magic with others.

As a mother of three and a psychologist, I bring both heart and insight into the pages of my books. Motherhood gives me a window into the joys, fears, and curiosity of a child’s world. My work as a psychologist deepens my understanding of how people think, feel, and grow.

My books invite children to explore new ideas, connect with characters, and awaken their creativity. Whether it’s imagining spaghetti creations or striking a power pose, I hope my stories spark joy, reflection, and confidence in every young reader.

Thank you for reading—and if one

Rick Lenz

I’ve spent the greatest part of my life as a writer and actor. Most of the acting was to make a living and raise my family. I have been a writer longer than I’m comfortable saying. I do it because it gives me joy, whether it’s playwriting, or in the last dozen years, writing books. Like a lot of people, I’m told, I threw away my first attempts at books—maybe two medium length novels. I hope readers come away from my stories knowing something they didn't know before, having been entertained, and wishing it didn't have to come to an end.

Ten year old Dave Tabler decided he was going to read the ‘R’ volume from the family’s World Book Encyclopedia set over summer vacation. He never made it from beginning to end. He did, however, become interested in Norman Rockwell, rare-earth elements, and Run for the Roses.

With visions of Rockwell dancing in his head, Tabler press-ganged his younger brother into wearing a straw hat and sitting next to a stream barefoot with a homemade fishing pole in his hand. The resulting image was terrible.
