Captain Carl Pollock

Captain Carl has spent his life moving from one big adventure to another, from the military and law enforcement to a career as a teacher and a high school football coach. He now spends his time either as a captain, sailing on the open sea, or as a cowboy working on his small ranch in Montana. Captain Carl’s inspiration to write children’s books was manifested after experiencing the joy his grandchildren received as they listened to his bedtime stories of far-off places, talking animals, and their wild adventures.
