About our GUEST:
As a children's book author, teacher, parent, and grandparent, Professor Stork believes picture books help change the world for the better. They can make the world a friendlier place by empowering children to make a difference. Leading the charge will be children ages four through eleven.
During these formative years, children are motivated to learn how they can, individually and with friends, empower their sense of purpose. The tools we give them during these years last a lifetime, and when the time is right, they will know how to make a positive difference in the world.
Children's books are a powerful tool to distract children away from screens and off devices, where the influencers and influences they interact with may not be delivering the strongest positive messages, in terms of helping them build a healthy lifestyle.
Our mission is to provide parents with picture books that deliver messages and entertainment they'll be proud to place in the hands of their children.
- Our pledge is to provide your child with books that respect his or her intelligence?
- Books that open important conversations between you and your child?
- Books that nurture your child’s innate sense and understanding of purpose?
- Books that build leadership skills?
- Books that give your child hours of enjoyment rather than minutes?
- Isn’t it time you joined the Professor Stork revolution?

Growing up in Campbell, California as one of eight siblings, Jeff Christian learned the value of serving others. Mostly by witnessing his mother – “The Rock,” on a daily basis.

Igniting greatness in people through storytelling is one of Jeff’s focuses in writing The Pizza Day Series. Jeff believes in all people, and is passionate in encouraging everyone that they can overcome life’s challenges. His keys to success? Take time to slow down, to truly see each other, to be seen, and listen with intention to one another. The Pizza Day Series takes young readers, families, teachers, teams, or anyone else interested, on a journey to better themselves. Each book in the series follows an inspirational journey of communication, chemistry, consistency, and creativity (C4). The four tenets of his Non-Profit group, C4 Leaders. Each story will encourage the reader to “light the fuse”, or take action, to implement C4 into their daily lives.
Jeff is a husband, father, registered nurse, basketball coach, podcast host of Life’s Essential Ingredients, and is the founder of the nonprofit organization––C4 Leaders®. All proceeds from the sale of his books goes toward the nonprofit. C4 Leaders® uses pizza and pizza making to build community at no financial cost to the participants.

GUEST:
“It’s the little moments that, if we’re paying attention, can create the biggest impact on our lives.”
One day, when Susan’s granddaughter was about two years old, she came into the kitchen wearing Susan’s oversized high heels, proclaiming, “I’m Grandma!” It was one of those profound moments, as Susan watched her granddaughter proudly stomp around the kitchen in her shoes, that made her stop and consider the question: “Are you happy with the legacy you are leaving your kids and grandkids?” The answer was a resounding…No!
Susan started to look at areas of her life that fell short, and she wasn’t happy with the legacy she had created up to that point. So, she began to work on herself—transformational work. She declared that the legacy she was going to leave would create such a positive ripple effect that it would carry through for many future generations to come!
The image of Susan’s granddaughter in her oversized high heels never left her, and it made her wonder what else her granddaughter was seeing while wearing her shoes?
Along with Susan’s journey to give her children and grandchildren a powerful legacy, the moment inspired her to write a picture book about a child’s adventure into the lives of his family by wearing their shoes.
Since the publication of Special Shoes for My Little Feet, Susan continues to write for children. She lives with her family and two cats, Leo and Arlo, in Northern California.
