The Day X Ran Away

MARVIN MAYER, a native of Louisville, KY, began writing children’s books when he retired from a career in banking, bank regulation, and financial management. The Day That X Ran Away is his second picture book, and 3rd children’s book, to be published. Now residing in the piney woods of East Texas, Marvin is a member of the Society for Children’s Writers and Illustrators (“SCBWI”), East Texas Writers Guild (“ETWG”), the New Jersey Children’s Writers Guild, and the Texas Writers Network. An active volunteer, he can be found interacting with children at or for the Tyler Public Library’s “Book Buddy” program and the Children’s Advocacy Center of Smith County.
