The story of

Thomas Rippy

Thomas Rippy’s love of books began in elementary school. He explored the school’s library, and there he found the books that fueled his passions for the great outdoors, animals, machines, history and so much more.

He became an outdoorsman, a businessman and a conservationist along the way, and from life’s lessons sprang the themes to his children’s books. 

Rippy has had many adventures in life, some were all fun, and a few where life hung in the balance.  Through life’s experiences, Rippy developed a unique perspective on human nature, and the natural world.

Rippy’s books have themes that children will enjoy and learn from. True friendship, as well as selflessness, helping others and animals in need, being compassionate, and the personal joy that comes from doing so. Rippy began writing children’s books several years ago upon retiring, and it has been a truly rewarding experience.
