His books are very humorous and are good at relating to the imagination of young children. He has published over 200 books. He is also a strong Christian, which makes him an excellent influence.

We would recommend the Black Lagoon series for ages 6 to 8. The book level ranges from 2.4 to 3.5, and is worth .5 points. These books are filled with interesting creatures and scary scenerios, they have a godly perspective, and are always entertaining. A couple of books from the series are: //The Principal from the Black Lagoon//, and, //The Class from the Black Lagoon//. The series doesn't need to be read in order.
