Hi, I'm Danny!

Welcome to the ONE & ONLY spot for all things Willy Children's books!

Your support means the world to me, and I can't wait to share the Willy books with you and your children!

The 4 Willy books and their life lessons will serve as a great compass for your children as they navigate through their journey of life. Perfect for kiddos aged 5-9.


The main character is Willy, an ideal role model for your kids.

Willy is a likeable underdog character who productively overcomes adversity and taps into his creative side to design a purposeful life.

Through Willy's journeys, children can vicariously learn how to effectively manage their emotions, unleash their creativity, overcome conflict in a productive way, and boost their self-esteem in the process. Willy shows kids that the quality of life is NEVER dependent on what happens to us but rather how we react to what happens.

Each story builds on the previous story to give a "full-circle" adventure in which kids can follow Willy as he goes from zero to hero; from ordinary to extraordinary!

It is my hopes that the Willy books will inspire and empower your children to focus on solutions and create their very best life. Anything really is possible when we dare to dream!

The Willy books also make a point to show kids the importance of serving others. In each tale, Willy shows how we can uplift ourselves when we uplift others. Willy hopes kids will walk away with the spirit of making a difference in this world!
