Behind the Canvas

Before there were books, there were conversations.

Before there was Lionel, there was a left-handed sketch.

Before there was Mama Bear, there was someone who quietly made room for another imagination.

Behind the Canvas is a collection of the ordinary moments that slowly became The Flying Treehouse Chronicles.

Part memoir and part companion, these six stories explore friendship, creativity, belonging, faith, neurodivergence, and the curious way small moments sometimes grow into entire worlds.

If you've ever wondered what lives behind the canvas, welcome.
