Antonino's Impossible Dream

Tim McGlen writes to lift up people by pushing the boundaries of possibility. Inspired by encouragement from Mr. Wade and Mrs. Lynn, his third- and fourth-grade teachers at Parkland Elementary in western New York, he has studied literature and published stories through college and beyond. A former advertising copywriter, he directs an upper-elementary Montessori classroom in Florida, where much to his delight, his students thrive at creative writing, and where his sixth-graders read weekly with their kindergarten reading buddies.

Greek-born and Athens based Sophia Touliatou has studied Graphic Design and works as an illustrator, doing mostly children books, many of which have gained merits and awards.
