Über den Autor

Steven T. Moore lives in Abilene, Texas where he works as an English professor at Abilene Christian University. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Nebraska.

The story of Theodore Thumbs is by no means a clear-cut retelling of this memory, but rather a light-hearted adventure for adults and children to walk through together with their thumbs held high into the skies.
