Meet the Author

E. Byron Chappell has spent a lifetime telling stories that remind both children and grown-ups that faith, kindness, and courage never go out of style. What began as simple bedtime stories, and now fifty years later at age 76, have grown into heartwarming books that inspire readers to see God’s love in everyday life. His first story, Little Pete and the Leaf The Raking Day, started as a tale about a small boy helping his neighbor—but it became something much deeper: a reminder that even the smallest hands, guided by love, can do great things. Through Little Pete’s adventures, Byron hopes children discover that being kind, honest, and helpful are still the greatest superpowers anyone can have. His stories are filled with timeless lessons of faith and friendship—showing that true strength comes from a good heart and a grateful spirit.
