Murphy Bear Books is dedicated to inspiring in children an appreciation for sports and nature that will keep them healthy and fit for life. It was created out of the author’s passion for teaching tennis and her love for children. In her years of teaching she found a common thread that runs through most sports. It is the friends we meet and our connection to the outdoors. The obesity and ADHD epidemic in children also inspired the author to write these stories. She hopes to educate parents of the health benefits of learning sports at a young age. The Mission of Murphy Bear Books can be summed up in these three quotes. "A sound mind in a sound body” by Juvenal "The better part of one's life consists of his friendships" by Abe Lincoln and "Come forth into the light of things. Let nature be your teacher" by William Wordsworth.
