He spent the better part of his youth wandering the forest, subsisting on foraging wild berries and the generosity of concerned woodland creatures. He holds degrees in Digital Forensics, Applied Mathematics, and a Masters in Public Administration. Obviously, natural foundations to tales about adventurous, talking animals.He lives in Southern New Hampshire with his family of super geniuses, where he serves as a bed for their adopted cat. He can be seen around town most days when his Norwegian Elkhound takes him for his daily proscribed walks. Footnote: While he was raised in a barn he did not, nor has he ever claimed to have walked uphill to school both ways in the snow. It was uphill one way then a sled ride home.","brand":"Lilbuda Creations","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51615457116434,"sku":"9781964544045","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_600d0c64-ec4d-4853-a7ad-6d917c45595d.jpg?v=1758096737","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/little-joe-and-the-big-city-a-childrens-book-about-family-emotions-and-helping-others-9781964544045","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
