ABOUT me JOHN CAYDEN
Hello and welcome to my website!
My name is John Cayden and I write, design, illustrate my own books for children without AI, based on my love of ecology. During COVID I decided to leave my long career as a museum education specialist and exhibition designer and developer, and embrace my passion as an environmental educator. I was inspired to make this move because I've always felt that educating little ones about our world is one of the most rewarding and good works to be done.
For they will be the future protectors of the plants, the animals and the environments and ecosystems that make this world beautiful and unique.
Information about my portfolio of books for children and my hundreds of museum interpretation samples are available within. Feel free to get in touch if you have any comments, questions, suggestions, fan art, or just want to say hello or add yourself to my mailing list for upcoming notices about new book releases. I would be more than happy to hear from you and I would love ideas to make my future books better. I also could use some help getting the good word out on social media because I'm old and I suck at it.

NEW BOOKS!
PUFF
My First Winter on the Prairie
NEW IN 2023! NOW AVAILABLE IN HARDBACK!
This is the story of Puff, a small groundhog who lives in the grasslands of North America. Puff recounts his first twenty days of winter by watching the other animals around him prepare for the coming of a long, cold season after experiencing the joy of a beautiful, hot summer and a cool colorful fall. Clues to their preparations are not only in what he sees them doing, but what he sees them eating and the small changes to their bodies he is witnessing as the fall of the first flakes of snow touch his nose.

THE FLIPERGUBERS
NEW IN 2023!! AVAILABLE IN HARDBACK
This is a story about a mischievous little family of Flipergubers, who live in the spaces unseen between some places twice forgotten. They long for adventure and fun and set off with their leader Obe into the new, away from the familiar, to discover another magical world full of life they had only dreamed about. Their tiny first adventure has thrills, spills and chills as they head for the warmth of the sun, barely escaping the grip of some fuzzy young creatures as they pass out of their dark world and into the light.
