In 2023, Todd and his wife Ariane founded Norse-Gael Books, with the goal of producing quality children’s books that are worth reading over and over again. When not writing and publishing, Ariane enjoys traveling through Europe on the internet and sneaking in a daily chocolate before her family comes home, while Todd enjoys playing basketball, any food that contains chocolate, and trying to figure out how “wallpaper, Uff da!, gnocchi, and shabba dabba doobee doo” form a group of four in Connections. Follow Ariane and Todd and at www.norsegaelbooks.com to learn more about their favorite brand of chocolate, when to use “Uff da!” in a sentence, and how to make friends when you're a Viking.
