James Michael Washington

Hi, I’m James Michael Washington, and I’m passionate about bringing history to life for young readers. As the author of The Legendary Collection of World War II Stories for Brave Kids (Parts 1 and 2), my mission is to make history engaging, educational, and inspiring for children and teens. I believe reading is one of the most important skills a child can develop—it opens doors to knowledge, curiosity, and creativity. My books are designed to spark that curiosity by sharing true, awe-inspiring stories from World War II. Every tale is based on meticulous research and is 100% nonfiction, with illustrations that help young readers visualize the incredible events and heroes of the past. These books are more than just stories; they’re a way to connect kids with history in a way that’s exciting and memorable. I focus on creating narratives that are easy to understand, packed with action, and filled with lessons about courage, resilience, and ingenuity. My goal is simple: to inspire young minds and help them discover the power of learning through history. Thank you for joining me on this journey to ignite a love of reading and history in the next generation!
