In a sleepy town outside Sandy, Oregon, a van plunges off a tall bridge into a swiftly moving river resulting in the demise of nearly an entire family. Leigh Buttonwood, a local artist, witnesses the tragedy and dives into the icy waters, saving baby Silas from the sinking van. Baby Silas is turned over to his recklessly unstable and mysterious grandmother, known around town as Dolly Doubloon. But shortly thereafter, an illegal backwoods adoption lands baby Silas in the hands of Leigh and Daniel Buttonwood, who raise the boy as their own. As a six-year-old, Silas takes on a new persona of Wolf Boy, but not in a sense that he howls at the moon or changes into a hairy kid beast once a month. He simply lives in the woods and wears a wolf headdress, beads, feathers, and a fur-lined cape. His eccentricities make him a target for bullies-and as an outcast he is most comfortable in the woods, regularly retreating deep into the cold forest where he cannot be found. He claims to have befriended a giant and a wizard, and those accounts seems all too real. On brief and covert returns home, Silas leaves intricate and wildly colorful drawings of his adventures, to which Leigh begins adding text narrations, crafting a story arc. Compiled into an endearing graphic novel for the ages, Wolf Boy & the Doubleback Giant becomes an international sensation. Wolf boy runs with wizards, giants, and fairies, but does Silas? His parents chalk it up to imaginary friends...But as his mysterious lineage starts to unravel, it is rumored that a spirit haunts the family, guiding Wolf Boy on an unpredictable path as he questions his existence.
Autorenporträt
My love of storytelling has driven me to a career in film. From 1999 to 2014 I wrote and produced the national educational video series, Science Screen Report. I went on to pursue a career in behind-the-scenes theater production at the world-renowned Kravis Center for the Performing Arts. Most recently, I have established a film & video department at the theater and have made videos for bands, promos for theater acts, and worked with several not-for-profit organizations to promote their messages though filmmaking.A lifelong artist, I also enjoy drawing, painting, and writing and playing music. I led an all-original band called Luna Rex from 2008 to 2018 as songwriter, guitarist and lead singer. We released a five song EP in 2012 and a full-length album in 2014. I still enjoy writing music in my free time and hope to release an acoustic EP soon.I've written and released two self-published novels and a book of poetry - Jonny Bails Floatin' (2013), An Awful Paradise (2018) and Sloppy Poems (2013), all available on Amazon.
