Jim Pearce. Jim is a married man with 9 grandchildren and a great grand daughter. After many years in the public speaking arena Jim began to tell his grandson stories at night before he went to bed. The standard stories about ’three little pigs’ became boring - particularly when the 3 year old grandson could tell the story complete with actions to his pre-school group. One day Jim sat down at his computer and while editing photographs of the grand children and adults at the beach he wrote his first childrens story about a trip to the beach. A story about a magic fish that takes the child visiting the sea creatures followed. This was the first story to be requested by others. Jim now has ten titles in print with further titles about gardening, tidy rooms, and pirates in progress.
