Looking For Daniel

About the Book

Having taught elementary school children for many years, I have been inspired by their honesty, their unique view of the world, and often their simplistic solutions to complex adult problems. I have written a series of episodes about a young child named Daniel and his adventures both in his school and within his community. In the first story, “Looking for Daniel,” the boy takes a simple walk around his neighborhood where he meets his neighbors and makes an interesting discovery. Other episodes include participation in the school's Christmas concert, meeting a unique neighbor, getting a puppy, attending a hockey game, etc.
