Long bio (182 words)
Ronald Moy is a children's picture book author in Los Angeles who writes little stories about big feelings and everyday wonder for readers ages 4–8. Each story starts with something small a child would recognize, like a rumble of thunder, a question nobody has time to answer or a lopsided kite, and follows it somewhere bigger.
In Ronald's stories, kids do the noticing, the choosing and the brave next step. Grown-ups are nearby but don't hand over the answers. Nervousness, jealousy and disappointment are treated as ordinary feelings, and the endings are hopeful without being sugary. The settings carry a little Southern California light: backyard gardens, neighborhood sidewalks, citrus trees and warm evenings.
The Little Wonders Library (working name), his planned series of ten standalone picture books, is in development. Each is written to be read aloud, for the child listening and the grown-up reading. The first read-aloud, The Umbrella Named Captain Blue, is on the Ronald Moy Stories YouTube channel. In it, a boy who'd rather stay under the kitchen table finds out an old umbrella makes a pretty good captain.
