Hi! I'm Anthony, author of the Nylah Versus series and father of Nylah. Since I was a boy, I've always had a vivid imagination and creative mind. I often found myself daydreaming of different animations and imaginary worlds. So it should come as no surprise that writing a children's book series comes naturally. The inspiration for my books come from my children, and as a father of four, I never run out of material. I beleive that learning should be fun and relatable, which is why I aim to create characters that check all the boxes.
