David CurtisDavid Curtis first wrote these stories at the request of friends in the Czech Republic. His friends were all parents and part of a small church there. Many were new to the faith and learning how to navigate a Biblical lifestyle; they wanted a book toread with their children. David taught Special Education at elementary schools in Idaho and Montana for twenty years and specialized in literacy skills. He and his wife Sharyn raised their two sons there, and later lived in Uganda, developed a literacy curriculum, trained teachers, and formed a non-profit to support a continuation of the work led by local teacher-trainers. They also enjoyed many lengthy stays in the Czech Republic. David developed a love of writing early in his life and continues to write contemplative poetry, which he sometimes combines with photographs he has taken. He and Sharyn are now retired and live in Minnesota, where they hope to take up snow shoeing! Read More Read Less
