"I always wanted to write a kids book", says Alaska author Nick Jans, "But it was too scary. Kids are the toughest audience there is". From early childhood, Jans remembers his parents reading aloud to him and his brothers, everything from Shakespeare to Rudyard Kipling to Dr. Seuss, and says those nightly readings are among his strongest and fondest memories. "I learned to love the sounds of the words, not just the stories they told", he says. Writing is meant to be heard, not just seen." Jans has also written eleven adult books, which he hopes get read aloud now and then. His latest book, A Wolf Called Romeo (Houghton Mifflin, 2013), is about a resident wolf in Juneau, Alaska. Nick, his wife, Sherrie, and their four dogs live in Haines, Alaska, and he travels widely across the state.
