Jacob's Wish is a heartwarming tale of a small boy who carries a big secret with him wherever he goes. More often than not, he is jokingly mistaken for a little businessman on account of the rather large and obnoxious briefcase he refuses to leave behind.

Against all odds, they embark on a journey filled with danger and excitement, making plenty of new friends and running into old acquaintances along the way.

Autorenporträt
TO THE READER: Since before I could remember, the imagined shaped every aspect of my life. From the toys that came alive when given a name and a voice, to the world around me that melted into something more than initially met the eye. Although not all living creatures could tell their stories, I found solace and deeper understanding when I witnessed their context and gave them a voice. This was not only where I had the best times, but the place that I have fought desperately to remain in throughout my life. In short, I have always feared the day when enchantment, wonder and mystery would suffer genocide. Only to be revisited by the occasional, short-lived nostalgic moment. Although flying dragons, monsters and other mythical beasts may forever exist in fantasy, let us do our very best in creating a compassionate, loving, and peaceful world. One that won't merely be found in the fiction section of our local bookstores but littered between the pages of our lives.
