Nothing cheers me up like a funny story and a few laughs. It’s even more rewarding when enjoyed with my daughter. I started telling my stories to her when she was six years old, and it became something we could always do together at the end of a long day. Eventually, I wrote them down and we continued to build on them with new plots that kept us engaged and laughing for hours. Now, “Mitch & Me” is available to every child that would like to laugh and giggle with their parents or on their own. We hope you enjoy Mitch’s stories, I know we do.
THE JUNIOR AUTHOR: LAUREN MAGGIORE
Lauren is my writing compass, letting me know when a story is funny, too serious or just plain boring. Her ideas and wit are intertwined in each “Mitch & Me” story. As we get older we will both have fond memories of the books we created together.
THE ARTIST: ZACH WIDEMAN
Each illustration is a work of art, created the old-fashion way, by hand. Zach is a master at capturing the emotion and personality of every scene in his work. Drawing by hand takes more time as every page is created on a fresh canvas. The result is worth the wait as readers enjoy the uniqueness and style of Zach’s work. His insight and skilled hand bring the stories of “Mitch & Me” to life, creating the emotion and excitement present in each of Mitch’s adventures.
