When the Sun Sleeps : 9781609115098

First-time author Vicki Leigh Kuracka was inspired to write When the Sun Sleeps by the antics of her three-year-old son. This proud mother says she is daily astounded by the new and interesting things her child does, so she wanted to share their experiences with others. "It was based on a conversation I had with my three-year-old one evening. Toddlers view the world so simply and when they ask you a question, you have to try to explain it to them in a way they can understand, which may lead to a few tall tales." This busy mother finds the best time to write is in the wee hours of the morning. She is most inspired to write around 3 a.m. when the house is quiet. Kuracka wrote When the Sun Sleeps in the very hours when her son sleeps. Author Vicki Leigh Kuracka was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, and now lives in Brandon, Florida, with her husband and son. She is the director of special events and promotions at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa. She has already started to write her next children's book.
