Rob Adamowski fondly recalls images from the books of his childhood. Lasting impressions were made by the brilliant illustrations of N. C. Wyeth in Treasure Island and those found in the pages of books by Rudyard Kipling.

When a true story inspired Rob to create his own children’s book, it was natural that he identify an illustrator who would bring similar elements of imagination and rich texture to the frame, while complimenting and enhancing the warmth of the story.

Having lived in the Pacific Northwest for more than a quarter of a century, Rob takes full advantage of the area’s beautiful natural resources by indulging his lifelong love of snow skiing, while enjoying frequent camping, hiking and fly-fishing trips with his wife and their best friend Bernice.
