I should state at the outset that I am NOT a writer, yet somehow I've ended up writing a children's book. I am a 45-yr old father of three girls ages 23, 15 and almost 7. Yep, that's right! We have three girls that are all 8 years apart. You do not want to plan an outing for this crew. The family dynamics are bananas! This unusual spread in age has however given me a very interesting perspective on parenting and preparing a child for success. Consequently, we have a pretty good shot at not screwing the youngest daughter up too much thanks to her older sister having been the test pilot! As I think about the tools, toys, and resources we had at our disposal for my oldest daughter almost 20 years ago, it's laughable in comparison to what my youngest has available to her today. While I'm happy that my youngest is the beneficiary of a much more advantageous set of circumstances, I also want her to have at least a little appreciation and insight into how people and things in her little world all come together to make society hum along. As she explores all the things that this world has to offer I want her to understand that someone had to conceptualize them, design them, build them, transport them, sell them and yes... pay for them. To convey this effectively the message would have to be packaged in a way that she and other little ones could embrace. With this in mind I created the Hugglesworth Bears. The Hugglesworth Bears all have distinctly different professions and different paths that lead to their respective professional interests. The book tells the story of some of the normal challenges they faced and overcame as little cubs in route to their respective successful careers. The book also walks through the different educational and vocational paths that the bears took to move into their professions. It is my hope the the Hugglesworth Bears will help little kids connect the dots. They will gain just a little insight into what it takes to become some of the professional figures that they see in their everyday lives and even some that they don't see that are key contributors to society as well. It is my hopes that other parents will find value and promise in these stories just as I have in sharing them with my daughter.
