Dedicated to Sharing Jesus With Children Worldwide...One Story At a Time!
Tood, the toad and Taboon, the baboon are the best of pals. However, they get into all kinds of precarious situations! Through all of their mishaps, they always rely on faith in God to bring them through. These two friends reside in the beautiful, sunny city of Pelican Starbright. This city consists of the Frilly Forest, where Taboon swings high in the tree tops and Lily Pad Central, where Tood lives in harmony. Not too far north, there lies the land of the stars. It's known as the flashy city of Horse Field Hills. Taboon had her heart set on making it big there some day, while Tood wished to be the best designer in town. Their way to the top will not come without its ups and downs, but they are friends without a doubt and will persevere together no matter what.
Everyone has their nemesis and Tood and Taboon have a couple too. Slinky Snootenheim is always right on time with his sneaky, stinky ways. Waiting for an opportunity to take what does not belong to him--without a trace. Then there is Tina the Tiger: a bully with a larger growl than bite! Always standing in the way of tiny Tood and Taboon as they go about their day. All of this may sound fun, weird or exciting, but it's just an average day for your pals in Pelican Starbright. Desiring to make it big as an acrobat or creating designs for movie stars, it's all in a days work; for the misadventures of Tood and Taboon are always stirring up!
Come out to see whats in stored for Tood and Taboon as they lean on God for help in their time of need!
Natasha Tabon and Angela Wood created the Misadventures of Tood and Taboon series in July of 2015 and published the first book in November of 2016 through Xulon Press.
Natasha always had a strong love of writing. As a child, she wrote a children’s book entitled “It’s a Strange Day” which placed 4th in her district. That was the beginning of her passion for creating stories that children would enjoy. She was always interested in hearing comical stories from coworkers, family and friends and would write about it in a way that kids would find pretty amusing! Natasha has two daughters, a niece and nephew who’ve also impacted her writing career. They would always tell her funny stories of what happened in school on any given day. She was also inspired by her own childhood. Growing up in the Dinwiddie County school system, there was never a dull moment. There, she found herself in some of the most awkward, yet fun situations. Over the years and with a stronger relationship in Christ, she realized writing Christian based children’s books was her calling. Now, with her friend Angela sharing similar interests with natural God given talent for creating fun stories, she knew this was their destiny! Angela grew up writing from an early age. Anything from poems and songs to short stories and plays. She has truly enjoyed collaborating with Natasha on their Christian children’s stories, (The Misadventures of) Tood and Taboon. Angela has two sons who contribute to her youthful outlook and passion in her writing. They are such an inspiration and blessing to her! Angela met Natasha through work and the two have maintained a close friendship ever since. It is through their hilarious experiences and strong bond that Tood and Taboon was born. They hope that many children, big and small will enjoy their stories and be able to find God in the midst. Angela and Natasha’s passion for sharing the love of Jesus is their most important endeavor. They pray many people are touched by their stories and come to know Jesus in a deeper way.
