One of my favorite parts of being a children's author is connecting with other writers who create stories that encourage, inspire, and spark meaningful conversations with young readers. Today, I'm excited to introduce you to author Angela G. Williams, creator of the delightful Milo the Moss children's book series. Why I Wanted to Feature Angela One thing I've come to appreciate through this author journey is the opportunity to connect with writers from different backgrounds and experiences. When I learned more about Angela's story, I was fascinated by the unique path that led her to become an author.

My son, Liam, certainly isn't a fan of waiting. Like many children, when he wants something, he usually wants it now. Waiting can be difficult when you're excited, and teaching patience can be just as challenging for parents. When Liam was younger, he probably would have checked on a newly planted seed every few hours, wondering why it hadn't already sprouted by the next day. Ironically, gardening has become one of his favorite things to do. He loves planting seeds, watering them, and watching them grow. Every spring he gets excited about deciding what to plant and checking on his garden. While he still prefers things to happen quickly, he has learned that ...
