A special thank you to Elizabeth Schultz and Authors Lounge for this wonderful opportunity to introduce myself and my book, The Child Who Changed The World, to you. I am a dad to 2 early teenage daughters. My wife is an Educator specialising in English.

She didn’t agree to some of my ‘English’ in my book but I insisted on it being more relatable in a ‘manner of speaking’ I published my first book in 2014, based on Perception, it is in line with my field of psychology. There is learning taken from the concept of my book that readers can apply to everyday life. With a new medium of educating which I hope will be the readers will like, I hope to help people from teenagers to middle aged individuals.

Hope you enjoy!
