About the Author
Hi! I'm Lauren E Owens.
I believe childhood should be filled with wonder, imagination, and adventures that encourage kids to explore the world around them.
I grew up in Colorado Springs but now reside in Chicago. When I'm not writing stories, you'll usually find me quilting, reading, exploring nature, or creating something new.
I created Max's adventures to celebrate courage, curiosity, and the small moments that help children grow into confident explorers.
Thank you for sharing these stories with your family.
