Bob Rich is an Australian storyteller, with 19 published books in a variety of genres including both fiction and nonfiction. Five of his books, and over 40 short stories, have won awards. He has retired 5 times so far, from 5 different occupations, but is still going strong as a Professional Grandfather. Any human born since 1993 qualifies as his grandchild. Everything he does, including his writing, is working toward a survivable future for them, and one worth surviving in. He carries on much of this work at his popular blog, Bobbing Around https://bobrich18.wordpress.com

He discovered that he was a Buddhist at 23 years of age, when a Christian minister of religion told him. In those pre-internet days, he needed to spend a day in the University library to check up on this claim, and to his surprise found his philosophy set out in beautiful words. He decided not to sue the Buddha for plagiarism, as an act of metta (lovingkindness).

He is not fussed by death, having done it all too many times.

Today, I'm thrilled to share a piece of my heart with you through the pages of my debut children's book, "Tiney Tiny Turner: I Feel Different." A children's book that isn't just about pages and words, but about the boundless power of acceptance.

I am a British African mother to a nonverbal boy with autism, who also has learning difficulties, sensory processing disorder amongst other challenges. It has been a longtime dream and passion of mine to write and publish children's books for longer than I can remember. Then, came the birth of my son in 2011, bringing with him a unique perspective on life. In 2014, he was diagnosed with non-verbal autism amongst other challenging behaviors and since then we've been on a journey, each revealing a new facet of strength within us.

My focus changed not in writing and publishing a children’s book but on what to write about following our struggles, challenges and life experiences. I wouldn't change my boy for the world, he's loving, sensitive, pure and warm and has thought me so many beautiful things as well as awakened innermost emotions and strengths I never knew I had. This has led me to recently publish my first children's book titled, TINEY TINY TURNER I FEEL DIFFERENT' which is about a boy born different from his peers. It focuses on diversity and inclusion of children with special needs and encourages our children to embrace their special different attributes because this is what makes each of them unique. It is a book which will resonate with parents, carers, teacher and kids alike.

It is available on Amazon in Paperback, Kindle and Audiobook formats if you'll like to check it out. Here's a sneak peek to the book trailer and links:
