Rob Mack is a father and grandfather who loves writing and telling stories. As a young adult he earned a bachelor's degree in English Composition. This led to many years of work as a technical writer with opportunities to teach college courses in remote areas in Western Canada. He has always enjoyed writing stories for children from the experiences of children he knows and those he meets. As he travels to work in these remote areas, he loves to drop into local schools and tell stories where other storytellers never go. He believes the best stories are about solving problems and learning how to become better creatures. Getting along at school, telling the truth, and solving real problems can always be helped by reading of the adventures of others. Rob lives in Alberta, Canada with Mrs. Mack and two Siamese cats, Hector and Athena. In his spare time, he likes to solve problems, travel the world, and have adventures.
