Rick Kurtis is a published author with over forty children's books. He is a father of five and has taught Sunday school in his local church. Born in a small rural town in southern Wisconsin, Rick loved to adventure out and imagine so many possibilities. This carried over with his love for children. He wants them to use their imagination and to give them stories of adventure that would help them to do so. He writes to give them moral values so they can learn valuable lessons that would help children to grow. He now enjoys making up games for his grandchildren to play; then after, they can read that same adventure, reliving the game over and over again. This has expanded into numerous books that he wants to share with children and families around the world. Rick's motto has always been, A child's happiness comes first.
