About the Author

The Washington Post called Daniel Amen, MD the most popular psychiatrist in America and Sharecare named him the web's #1 most influential expert and advocate on mental health. Dr. Amen is a physician, double board certified psychiatrist, television producer and ten-time New York Times bestselling author. He is the Founder and Medical Director of Amen Clinics in Costa Mesa and San Francisco, California, Bellevue, Washington, Reston, Virginia, Atlanta, Georgia and New York, New York. While studying Architecture, Brendan Kearney realized he didn't like rulers. He also discovered that drawing pictures for a living was a legitimate and fun career option, so he traded architecture for illustration as quickly as he could. Brendan now creates children's book, bringing his own chaotic style and ideas to his projects. If you can't find him drawing you're likely to find him with a guitar or banjo in hand.
