More About the Author
P.K. Hallinan began writing children's books 35 years ago when his wife asked him to make a book for their two young sons as a Christmas gift. He did, and the feedback he got from friends and neighbors inspired him to write more books. Since then, P.K. has written and illustrated 89 children's books and has sold more than 8,000,000 copies worldwide.
P.K. was born in Los Angeles in 1944 and spent his youth primarily in Bethesda, Maryland and in the San Fernando Valley. Although P.K. never studied art, his disappointment with the work of the artist assigned to illustrate his first book, motivated him to learn to draw. He has been illustrating his own books ever since.
"If I did any one thing right," says P.K., "I decided very early on to write books that help children and parents alike have better and happier lives. That decision has kept many of my books in-print for more than 25 years, because the values I teach are timeless."
P.K. is also an ordained minister and pastors his own small church, Joy Chapel, in Ashland, Oregon. He lives with his wife, Jeanne, in the mountains above Ashland and also at the beach, in Brookings, Oregon.

Wer're Very Good Friends, My Grandpa and I,
By Candee Laine Monak (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: We're Very Good Friends, My Grandpa and I (We're Very Good Friends (Hardcover Ideals)) (Hardcover)
This book is great, especially for those children that have a special relationship with their grandfathers. My little boy's relationship with his Grandpa is so similar to this beautiful story. He absolutely loves it. He wants me to read it to him all of the time; however, his favorite is to have Grandpa read it to him. I highly recommend this and all of the other P.K.Halinan books.

P.K.Hallinan,
By Grandma K (Cleveland, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My Grandpa and I (Board book)
This is my 2 year old granddaughter's favorite book. I bought My Grandpa and I, My Grandma and I, My Daddy and I, and My Mommy and I for both my children' families. They are well written and the children are able to understand and relate to the content.
