Gary Bower is a former pastor of children & teens. He is also an involved father and grandfather, and a lifelong follower of Jesus Christ. He is always looking for creative ways to use words and pictures effectively to cultivate deep faith and strong character in young lives.
Gary has a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Fort Wayne Bible College (g.1980). He has written for several publishing companies, including Tyndale House, Worthy Kids/Hachette Book Group, Kregel Publications, David C. Cook, and Storybook Meadow Publishing, which he founded in 1999 and co-owns with his wife, Jan Bower. Gary enjoys sports, yardwork, travel, and of course, word games. Since 2001, Gary Bower has spoken to thousands of people in hundreds of assemblies, classrooms, and small groups. He believes that a powerful way to a child's heart is through a story. All of his many beautiful picture books — some whimsical, some moving and thought-provoking — are engaging, memorable, and timeless. |
