He’s taught kindergarten through eighth grade and been a principal and assistant principal at the primary, elementary and middle school levels. Dr. McAfee’s love of children’s literature began for him as a child reading Bible stories, Greek mythology, fantasy, and fairy tales. As a student in elementary school, Dr. McAfee learned he had dyslexia. His mother helped him overcome his disability by having him read out loud and write stories of his own. Mr. Wish is Dr. McAfee’s second children’s book. He wrote his first book, Everybody Came to Daddy Chuck’s Funeral, as a tribute to his grandfather, who cared not only for his family but also for his church and community members.
“As a teacher, I noticed there’s a paucity of books with magical themes with characters that look like my students. I wrote Mr. Wish, so little Black boys and girls can dream of the impossible happening for them.”ver menos
