About the Author

Terrence N. Tullgren is an independent author, designer, producer and artist who resides in Miami, Florida. Tullgren originally wrote his first children’s activity book, Donnie Makes New Friends, as a means to address a fundamental issue for children with autism, eye contact. After rigorous testing, he realized the book was relevant to all children. That was the catalyst for creating the DONNIE LEARNS series, a number of coloring books that present essential values and serve as a foundation for character development in children.
