About the Author

Genny and Bug’s Big Adventures: Genny Faces the Green Knight is Darrel Gregory’s first children’s book. Through the characters Genny and Bug, Darrel hopes to inspire children to say an overwhelming “yes” to exploring the world around them and undertaking their own hero journey. You’re never too old or too young to take the first step, believes Darrel. At 58, he is embarking on a new journey down a new path. “I want children to have a profound sense of awe and wonder in the natural world, and to begin to develop a sense of purpose through play and imagination. I think stories can help achieve that.” Darrel hopes to write additional stories in the Genny & Bug’s Big Adventures series.
