Silent Friends

About the Book

I have always seen faces in things like trees, paint splotches, or concrete etc. One night, I could not sleep and was looking round my room, there was water damage and peeling paint on the ceiling, which I saw as creatures with faces. Having a lot to do with children over the years, I knew they’re often scared of the dark and what may be hiding there. My mind was always making up stories so as I looked at these creatures, I just thought about what their roles may be in making kids feel safe when they’re alone in their bed. From there as I described them to myself (poetically) Pokey, Angel and Grom, being our Silent Friends, were born.
