Happy 175th birthday to Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, 1st president of Czechoslovakia. I attempted a portrait of him in my second book. What stood out was how much he respected his wife, and how he would come home from work as a professor and parliament member to lie down on the floor & play with his kids

A salute to my father on his 80th birthday. I became a teacher because he was a great teacher. I became a father because he is a great father. Thanks, Dad!

Manuscript submitted! It took 10 years to write Book #1, five years to write Book #2, and 18 months to write this one. Finally getting the hang of it.

Graded first exams from my high school history students in Prague. A nice surprise were all the illustrations - including the teacher depicted as a Minion.
