Jeff Muff writes children's books for everyone.
His stories are shelved in the children's section, but they are read by eight-year-olds and eighty-year-olds alike, by parents who pick up a copy for their child and finish it before bedtime, by teachers who find the themes still turning in their minds a week later, by adults who simply never stopped believing that the best stories are the ones that do not require you to have grown up yet to understand them.
Jeff writes about children who find extraordinary things in ordinary places: a door behind a greenhouse, a library built from every story ever told, a garden where grief grows and can be healed. His debut series, The Storykeeper Chronicles, has been called a love letter to books, to libraries, and to the stubborn human insistence that stories matter.
Because they do.
Jeff lives surrounded by books. So do his characters.
