Award Winning Author Appears on Good4Utah

Children's book author Jean Reagan joins us and tells her inspiration for her books as well as being a back-country volunteer in Grand Teton National Park.

Her first book, ALWAYS MY BROTHER, (2009) was written as a result of her son’s death to a heroin overdose at age 19. The book is aimed at younger children so the characters are younger and it focuses on coping with sibling loss, not the cause of death. The emotional story mirrors their family's path.

All her recent, fun How-to books (4 published, 4 more in production) are “sprinkled” with her son's memory. This series regularly makes The New York Times bestseller list.
