Author Biography Kevin Gallagher is a person who tries on a daily basis to inspire hope in everyone he meets. This doesnt take an extreme amount of effort, but rather simply recognizing that we all struggle with something. And even if we dont know the exact worries or wounds of another, if we meet that unknown with kindness, it somehow has a soothing effect and we are all better for it.In this book he addresses the struggle of a vast audience of parents who want to help their child participate in a sport, but lack the know-how. Kevin meets that struggle with insight and gentleness, providing hope to the parent via a solution they can learn and teach.Kevin was a 3 sport athletic star in High School going on to play both College Basketball and Baseball. It was in Baseball he excelled the most. He was a 3 time East Coast Athletic Conference ( ECAC ) All Star playing for Division 1A Pace University, University Athlete of the Year 3 years in a row, set 6 School Batting Records, was inducted into the Pace University Hall of Fame, finished in the Top Ten in batting and was an All Star playing for the Mt. Vernon Generals in the Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League (ACBL) under the coaching guidance of Jack Fisher, former long-time Major League Pitcher and played with the Pittsburgh Pirates Class A team before an injury ended his career abruptly. Kevin has also coached at numerous levels including Little League, American Legion, High School, College and in the Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League, a Major League Baseball Funded Summer League for Draft Prospects. Writing this book was born from Kevins own wound of having his baseball career ended prematurely, and has been a passion of his for a long, long time. This is just another example of Kevin meeting anothers struggle, in this case the parent trying to help his child, with insight, gentleness and hope. Ceej has been a practising illustrator for the past ten years, and has been drawing in general for much longer than that. Taking inspiration from people and their surroundings, he gets a real kick out of capturing the little details that make a piece of work stand out, learning new processes and challenging his comfort zone whenever he gets the chance. Growing up, he surrounded himself with comics, pictorial reference books and illustrated literature (factual or fictional), as well as spending his Saturday mornings gazing in wonder at his favourite cartoons, so being able to use his creativity to make a living is a childhood dream come true.Having lived in London until recently, he now resides on the south coast of England, where the air is much cleaner. When hes not hunched over the desk in his studio, or happily sketching in the quiet corner of a coffee shop, he spends time with his son, wife and friends - heading to the beach, exploring the surrounding countryside or returning to the city for a culture top-up.
