I love Papa Dude and Charlie Crab! They delighted our younger students at school with a live reading. The children were enthralled and loved meeting Papa Dude and having him answer some of their questions about writing. As a teacher, I love that his books are not only fun and entertaining, but are also educational as well. I bought 2 of the books for my grandchildren and can't wait for more of the Papa Dude series to be published. Thank you for your love of storytelling!

Steven is the author of the Papa Dude series. Papa Dude is a solid and warm guide-type character, kind of an authority on all things as you travel with him on adventures. He’s a likable and solid dude—a Papa Dude! His best friend, Charlie Crab, offers a playful, lighthearted touch to every page, while Papa Dude delivers factual information about all sorts of things. With Papa Dude, young readers can explore the zoo, the continental USA, dog breeds, the history of Santa Claus, outer space, and more. The whole package makes for a supremely educational yet fun series!
