He experienced a moment of inspiration while reading a bedtime story to his daughter years ago, which led him to believe he could create a children's book. The idea of incorporating his love for cheeseburgers lingered in his mind for some time, and he was motivated to pursue the creation and completion of the book to provide a lasting gift for his children.
