ABOUT
MANNY was born from what was left of the flimsily stapled, hand-drawn books painstakingly made by a father for his child. With nothing but an old Wacom Bamboo Pen Tablet, freeware called Krita and Paint.NET, and Microsoft Office programs while having minimal artistic skills, he sought to create more durable picture books that could be reproduced should they meet the same grisly fate as his earlier “masterpieces”. And since writing more about this falls under TLDR <Too Long Didn’t Read>, end.
MANNY aims to teach children about values and issues this father cares about. Being an expat in Japan, providing the books in both English and Japanese to aid in language education was a no-brainer.

Leonard Loo
Leo runs a one-person business. When business is slow, he works on random writing projects, including the present MANNY THE MONSTER series. His first title, From Having a Boss to Being My Own Boss: How I took control of my future to become independent (time-wise and money-wise) in Japan, is of a completely different genre and is for an entirely different audience. Go figure.
