About the Book

Stairway to the StarsAn Inspirational Folk Tale By David E. McAdams "To the stars," said Tomison. "And now that you know you can?" Tomison smiled. "I will go back. And teach others how to walk." In the gentle village of Lester, where mountains sleep and the wind speaks through tall trees, lives a boy with a dream bigger than the sky. Tomison doesn't wish to fly or ride upon clouds. He wants to walk to the stars on his own two feet. With a bundle of barley and shoes made of straw, he sets off at dawn, guided by the voice of an ancient obelisk and the hush of a world alive with secret magic. Along the way, Tomison meets a stag that speaks, a staircase made of light, and the stinging shame of failure. But he climbs again. And again. Because the stars, he learns, reward the stubborn. Written in the timeless voice of folklore and the musical rhythm of poetry, Stairway to the Stars is a luminous tale of resilience, humility, and courage. Ideal for children ages 6 and up, but just as powerful for adults, this story invites readers to believe in impossible journeys and to leave invisible steps behind for others to follow. Perfect for: Readers who love beautifully written folk tales Families seeking meaningful bedtime stories Classrooms exploring character education and perseverance Anyone who's ever dreamed of reaching the stars Features: Poetic, lyrical prose that reads aloud like a lullaby A message of quiet bravery and tenacity A memorable character whose journey will stay with readers A mythic, nature-rich setting full of wonder and gentle mystery

About the Author :
David E. McAdams is a storyteller, an educator, and a lifelong explorer of ideas. With a career spanning decades in mathematics education and a deep love of writing, David has authored a wide range of books that blend learning with imagination. His work stretches from playful puzzle collections for young children to detailed explorations of mathematical constants, vocabulary guides, and interactive learning resources-all designed to open doors to discovery. David's journey began in the classroom, where he taught high school math and discovered a truth that would guide his work ever after: Children learn best when they're engaged, curious, and having fun. Over time, he noticed a critical gap in math education-students were struggling not only with concepts, but with the language of mathematics itself. This insight led him to create All Math Words Dictionary, a comprehensive, kid-friendly resource to strengthen math vocabulary and improve understanding. But David didn't stop there. He began writing math-inspired books for young readers-books that entertain while they teach. In One Penny, Two, a charming, witty story about a coin that doubles every day comes to life. In What Is Bigger Than Anything?, children are introduced to the astonishing idea of infinity. His My Favorite Fractals and Geometric Nets Project Books invite children to explore patterns, numbers, and geometry in concrete, joyful ways. David's books are often playful, poetic, and filled with real-world wonder: dinosaurs, fairy tales, space, stuffed animals, hide-and-seek, even playground swings. Every story or puzzle is crafted not only to teach, but to spark the imagination. His recent projects include a collection of hundreds of math puzzles for six-year-olds and a themed series that pairs math with everything kids love: ice-cream cones, treasure hunts, magic tricks, and much more. His works have been translated into several languages, including Bengali, making his joyful approach to learning accessible to more and more children around the world. Whether he's counting the stars or exploring the digits of pi, David brings a deep sense of care and curiosity to every page. Now retired from teaching, David devotes his time to gardening and the creative joy of writing. He continues to write every day, always dreaming up new ways to help children see the beauty of mathematics, the power of language, and the magic of wondering, "What if...?"
