Simon E. Mills (AKA, Sir Rhymesalot, AKA Millsie). This relentless-rhymer is a raggedy mix of Australian, New Yorker, pirate, poet, and polymath. A gregarious author who masterfully communicates on multiple levels. Courageously comedic and then soulful when you least expect it, his stories entertain the parent reader on one level and the youngster on another. You will meet Violet the Virus who longingly loves people but has no idea she is harmful. You will meander through Venice with Pigeoni, the Italian consigliere whose fanciful-fairytales prove too much for his fellow feathered friends until they discover the remarkable truth of his character. Parables that ponder themes from bullying to self-belief in I Lost My Brave and from racial harmony in Cyril, the Squirrel to social distancing dilemmas in I Lost My Hug. Author of over 50 books, including 25 children's storybooks. Mills' children's books are written in rhyming verse. The style has developed over decades as a professional musician and commercial music composer while funding his writing habit as an investment banker. His adult works include business leadership books for influential executives, and he is a biographer for prominent public figures.
