Inspiration for School Day Series

The School Day Series consists of entertaining, funny stories of events that happened at Seaside School, placed on the main character, megaphone carrying, grumpy, and iron-fist Principal Squires. Each story is humorous with illustrations drawn in bright colors with a sense of playfulness. The stories are inspired by Dr.  Squires’ position as a K-8 principal.
