Autorenporträt
Larry Sceurman believes we all have metamorphoses throughout our lives, changes that occur from within us. Larry's journey starts while growing up in the Kaywin section of Bethlehem, Pa., where he struggled in school (especially with reading). As a teen, he worked in his grandfather's auto body repair shop. While in the shop, he realized that working with his hands and using his imagination to solve problems came easily for him. In his mid-20s, he became a vocational education instructor. That experience taught him that story is a great asset in education. That inspired his evolution into a master oral storyteller. Through teaching and storytelling, Larry realized that his dyslexia was a gift and not a burden. Being dyslexic honed his listening skills. One has to be a good listener to be a good storyteller. Larry took his storytelling skills to the pen and paper and with the encouragement of his lovely wife, Barbara. From teacher to storyteller then writer to published author of nostalgic fiction, Larry now embarks on a new endeavor, releasing his first children's book, Bookworms Magical Journey. Larry has completed another metamorphosis in his life.
