Debut Children’s book Out Now


My Janitor’s Name Is ben

Have you ever noticed that no matter how much of a mess you make at school, there is always someone special that cleans it up? From glue to glitter, from lunch tables to trash cans, every school has a special person that makes sure your school is as clean as possible. Have you ever noticed what they look like? Have you ever noticed what they do for school every day? Have you ever wondered why those carefully placed crumbs disappear overnight?


ABOUT THE BOOK

The inspiration for this book comes from my son Jackson. I used to read bedtime stories to him all the time, and one night I got the idea to write my own. Trying to figure out what I was going to write was a little difficult, but I thought I should write a book explaining to my son what I do for work. Then it clicked! The story should be about what I do for work but through the eyes of a 1st grader. So naturally, and even though the book is about a janitor, the main character is my son Jackson.
