Dana Wilson
I am a mommy to three wonderful boys. We practice connection parenting which prioritizes the parent-child relationship, with tools derived from gentle and positive parenting. After my third child was born, the new dynamics were a challenge for my boys and their relationships were strained. I searched high and low for a children’s book to help strengthen their sibling bonds; however, I couldn’t find anything similar enough (that they could relate to). So, I decided to write my first book about brothers, and then sisters. Many more to come!

Legends have always fascinated me. Do they give your children a sense of wonder too?
As an Australian poet, it's hard to find work in the Outback. But there are children all over the world struggling to learn how to read. Some of them have hardly any books in their native language.
That's why I created the Bilingual Legends series – to give as many children as possible the opportunity to read a story in their own native language. Usually, each book in the series is published in the language spoken in the land where that story originates. A typical book also includes the text in English, but in some cases Spanish, Portuguese, German, or another l -
