Jeffrey Blander

Jeff was raised by his grandparents, who taught him that kindness is the most important virtue and that small acts of love can make the world a better place.

He has worked in many faraway places and believes that children everywhere hold the key to a brighter future. Jeff is continually inspired by his daughter, an imaginative storyteller, wonderful artist, and fearless explorer. Together with her mom, she helps create wondrous tales of kindness, forgiveness, and friendship—often with a touch of fairy magic.

Jeff is the author of the Maisha and Friends series, including Maisha and the Rainbow Tree and Jessica and the River Fairies. His stories celebrate resilience, love, and hope, reminding readers that even through loss, light and connection can always be found.

All proceeds from his children's books are donated to charitable causes supporting children, families, and environmental restoration efforts around the world.
