Author Bio

Gordon is a retired Navy pilot and beloved children’s book author who brings the same devotion he once gave to serving his country into creating heartfelt stories for families.

After a distinguished career in the Navy, Gordon found a new mission: writing beautifully illustrated books that celebrate the joy, wonder, and unbreakable bond between grandparents and grandchildren. His inspiration comes from the spark he sees in his 8 year old grandson’s eyes whenever they share a story together.

Gordon’s path to becoming an author began during a challenging chapter of his life, when writing offered comfort, creativity, and a renewed sense of purpose. Today, he collaborates with gifted illustrators around the world to bring whimsical, tender adventures to life.

His books—including Grandma Gets a Puppy, The Great Puppy Playtime Plan, and Camper Bus Time Machine, and Mama Hoa’s Specialty Vietnamese Cuisine— have earned perfect 5 star ratings from readers who call them “favorite bedtime books” that fill children with smiles and imagination.

As both a grandfather and former military officer, Gordon understands how powerful stories can be in teaching love, acceptance, resilience, and the magic of unexpected blessings. He writes for every child who needs a gentle bedtime tale, every grandparent seeking connection, and every family celebrating the small miracles that make life sweet.

Gordon continues to create stories that inspire warmth, curiosity, and joy in young hearts everywhere.
