When I was writing "Return to Robinson Island" (the first Swiss Family Robinson sequel in one hundred years), I would tuck my daughters in bed and tell them stories. A couple of years later, my oldest daughter who is now twelve years old approached me saying, "Dad I want to be an author." Listen to the podcast and my daughter, Kyla, and I explain the origin of this new book and the writing process. We are working to have this tween book release by the fall of 2018.
