Monica and Jace Oliver are a mother-son writing team who have been creating stories ever since Jace was three years old. Jace has always had a very active imagination with an insatiable appetite for reading. Monica decided to start writing down the fantastical stories Jace created and flesh them out into books and stories of their own. By writing their own stories, Jace was able to express his creativity through storytelling, as well as through the pictures he drew to accompany the stories. Not only did this keep him busy and entertained, Monica believes it also helped him advance his language and literacy skills. So much so, he has scored in the ninety-ninth percentile repeatedly on national and state standardized tests in language and reading. Writing stories together became their "thing," and it continues to this day. Both avid readers, they love the excitement of reading a great book and wanted to share one of their most treasured stories for everyone to enjoy.
