A former South Texas teacher has created a children's book series to promote healthy choices and combat obesity and diabetes. The idea for the series came to David Norec during a difficult time in his life. Norec's motivation stemmed from a personal tragedy, having lost two siblings to diabetes.

His concept began with a prayer during his commute home from work and has since evolved into a series of books. Further details about the book series and Norec's story are available from local news sources, including KPRC 2 Houston.
