James Daos lives in Southern California with his wife and five children. He is an avid surfer, and has enjoyed riding waves up and down the California coast and Hawaii.

Over the years James has spent countless hours telling his children bedtime stories. To hear them laugh and see them smile gave James the enthusiasm for the next evenings story.

In 2002 James combined his passion for surfing and his talent for story telling into the ultimate tale about a colony of ants that love to ride waves. His dream is to bring a sense of fun and adventure to all his readers, while introducing them to the wonderful world of surfing.
