Hello friends, 

I have an announcement to make! Shelby Mosel and I are releasing a children’s picture book titled Wesley the Brave. I provided the text while she hand-drew the book’s wonderful illustrations.

The story follows a young boy named Wesley who is afraid of the monsters that come out at night, but learns about bravery from a very special stuffed bear. This is both of our first time producing something like this, but we’re very happy with how it turned out and are excited to share it with you all!

“Wesley just turned four, and being a “big boy” isn’t always easy—especially when the other kids at school are even bigger than he is. But when Wesley’s biggest fear comes crawling out from under his bed, his dad gives him Theo, a brave little stuffed bear with a wooden sword and a big job: fighting monsters! With Theo by his side, Wesley learns that courage isn’t about being the biggest—it’s about facing your fears and believing in yourself.”

The story is recommended for children ages 3-6. It launches on March 1st and will be available in both paperback and digital formats here.

We hope you enjoy it!
