"...your books [are] quality reading, They make me think a lot more than most everything else I've read, and makes me think more than absolutely anything on T.V. Plus, they're very inspiring and encouraging, I like Eddie Johnson's Ark and Rodney Appleseed in particular, and everyone I know loves the Little Snail." Tim.
"My niece says you are her new favorite author! She has an extremely busy schedule so she reads a little at a time and shares some of the paragraphs with me. She says she can't wait for more books from you." U'ilani. "Ross, you're ... a breath of fresh air in the cynical jungle of urban modernity. I can always count on you to find and explore sassy ways to rebirth familiar experience. Just thought I'd give you a little feedback and appreciation." Gregg. "I love receiving your news letters. Thank you for your delightful updates and your inspiring stories." April. "She brought the books to school and had her teacher read them to the class. She then thought the children in Germany and Nigeria, where she is from, should also know these stories so she had her mother send the books back home. I just thought you should know some of the impact your writing has on others. I find your work so uplifting and encouraging, not to mention, just plain ole, fun to read. You are not just entertaining, you are teaching, for there are a multitude of lessons to be learned in your work for children and adults alike." Odey. "I love the way you write ...your imagery is just perfect and your books are so much fun...it's like jumping into someone's head and hearing their thoughts... Thank you so much for signing the books as well." Julie.

"My kids really enjoyed the workshop last summer and both of them were recognized/awarded for their writing this year (something neither had achieved before)." Sandy "I've read all the books by Ross Anthony. Each one brings wonder and magic back into my life... one of life's simple pleasures, yet there is always a deeper, profound message." Terry, Corporate IT Manager.

HOW TO BUY: First of all, thank you so much for wanting to buy. I'm honored that you dig my books enough to slap some cold hard cash down for them. Secondly, this is the ONLY place where you can get my books new. (With the exception of directly from me in person.) Any of my books on Amazon etc are used copies sold via resellers. Thirdly, I'm taking a wonderful break from writing books and from selling them. However, I still want you to read them. Ah, so that requires a creative solution outside of the normal economy. I'm open to your ideas, but here are a few: Hire me in some fashion, or nudge someone you know to hire me. I'm an excellent videographer and editor. Speaking of editing, you can hire me as a developmental editor on your book. Or hire me as an illustrator on your book, or hire me to coach you to write your book. Or if you're in California, buy me lunch! I travel a lot, so even if you're not in Cali, I might be working near your town. Anyway, those are my ideas. What are some of your ideas? Oh, and while your thinking, check this little thing out it. It's a
