Gather 'round as we unfurl a tapestry of holiday magic with Todd Zimmerman, the creative spark behind "Oliver the Christmas Tree Ornament." His tale begins with a simple family tradition, blossoming into a story cherished by children and adults alike. With a mother's gentle push, Todd transformed a spark of inspiration into a series that would find its way into the heart of the White House. Our conversation meanders through the poignant role of ornaments in family traditions, revealing how each character in Todd's stories holds a mirror to the cherished keepsakes that adorn our own holiday trees.
Turn the page to a chapter in your own holiday narrative as we weave through the imaginative "hero chapter" and the enchanting character development that has readers eagerly awaiting each new addition to the ornament family. Todd Zimmerman's visit to our podcast isn't just an author's recount; it's a celebration of the bonds we forge through stories and the memories ensconced within our festive rituals. So, pour yourself some hot cocoa, settle in, and let the spirit of the season percolate through each word as we share this special episode with you.
