Growing up surfing, boating and fishing provided many opportunities for Todd to experience first hand the waters across the Gulf Coast. Todd lives with his wife Alita and son Evan in the heart of Downtown Pensacola. Todd's inspiration for Louie's Great Race and the future Briny Bunch Tales was born out of watching his wife's passion for early childhood development. As a Speech Language Pathologist Alita has worked with children from birth to grade school for over 25 years. Witnessing that drive to encourage our son's early childhood growth, Todd started creating and telling childhood stories and from those bedside stories came the creation of Louie. Louie's Great Race was created, told and retold over and over from the time Evan was 2 till probably 6. Now, 11 years later, Todd decided to take that interactive story and share with other parents and children.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eRoberts, Derek:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \"About the Illustrator - Derek Roberts is a children's Book Illustrator \u0026amp; Background Designer.
