A former South Texas teacher has created a children's book series to promote healthy choices and fight obesity and diabetes. The series was inspired by a personal tragedy, as the teacher lost two siblings to diabetes.

The idea for the book series came to the teacher during a difficult time in his life. It began as a simple prayer during his commute home from work and has since grown into a collection of books.

Further details about the book series and the teacher's story are available from KPRC 2 in Tomball, TX.
