Just Right (150 words)
Debuting author Mark Anderson has pursued knowledge all his life. From sneaking books into church services to finishing “just one last chapter” into the wee hours of the morning before school, a love of reading has been a key component of his success. He naturally passed his love of stories on to his children, and then their children, through his own incredible storytelling ability.
Perfecting just the right blend of education, entertainment, and humor, Anderson’s ability to tell a good story is only matched by his ability to create the vivid art to illustrate his stories.
And now he’s sharing those stories with the rest of us. While his debuting children’s title, “Who Is the Best?” was released spring 2025, rest assured he has several titles in the queue for future publication. Stay up to date with Mark’s latest title releases by going to heartfirebooks.com.
