Henry Dyson was raised in South Carolina during the 1940s and 1950s. HIs memories are filled with stories from his childhood, including the part his family played in getting the first school bus for black children so they would not be taunted as they walked to school while the white children rode in the bus. He used another book he created to teach the importance of learning to read. A student of the Bible, Henry has written books about Bible study, real estate management, and other stories that encourage students to explore their imaginations with games they make up.
