John Cecca Jr.

Hi, I'm John Cecca Jr storyteller, sci-fi dreamer, and grandpa with a pen.

I write adventure stories for children in grades 4-6, filled with rich vocabulary, science, real world facts, and plenty of heart.

Each book includes a glossary and discussion points to help readers dive deeper. From braving a fierce nor'easter in The Blizzard's Ocean Roar, to escaping a July 3rd brushfire in The Brushfire's Embers Waves of Flames, or unraveling Halloween mischief in T'Ernolan's Tricky Treat, my goal is to keep readers turning pages while thinking and learning along the way.

A Bit Deeper

I also explore other genres, including the speculative sci-fi romance Orion's Soulmates, and several poetry collections like Byron Corner-crosswalks and crossroads (part philosophical, part confessional), Misfortune Cookies (a book of haiku), and Autobiographica-Poetica-lol.

When I'm not writing, I'm usually enjoining the company of my grandchildren-and growing old with them.
