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.
