Before there was “Pirates: The Ring of Hope”, Daryl Cobb wrote the story “Monkey Troubles”. A funny and engaging short story, it was written with a younger audience in mind. As Daryl came up with more and more ideas, the story began to grow. He would eventually add 150 pages filled with twists and turns in and around the original story. The extended version of the delightfully silly tale “Monkey Troubles” went on to become what older readers know now as “Pirates: The Ring of Hope”. "Monkey Troubles" When Monk doesn’t return promptly from his mission to find Captain Paul, Peter is sick with worry. And to make matters worse his dreams of a mysterious bottle with a note inside has a message that is deadly and more real than Peter could have imagined. The characters are rich and beautifully rendered, and the story is sprinkled with humor. Much of the dialogue − especially between Peter and Monk and Antonio and Marcus − is delightfully silly.

Daryl Cobb lives in New Jersey with his wife and two children. Daryl’s writing began in college as a Theatre Arts major at Virginia Commonwealth University. He found a freshman writing class inspiring and, combined with his love for music and the guitar, he discovered a passion for songwriting. This talent would motivate him for years to come and the rhythm he created with his music also found its way into the bedtime stories he later created for his children. The story “Boy on the Hill,” about a boy who turns the clouds into animals, was his first bedtime story/song and was inspired by his son and an infatuation with the shapes of clouds. Through the years his son and daughter have inspired so much of his work, including “Daniel Dinosaur” and “Daddy Did I Ever Say? I Love You, Love You, Every Day.” Daryl spends a lot of his time these days visiting schools promoting literacy with his interactive educational assembly shows “A Writer’s Journey” and “Music & Storytime”. These interactive cultural arts based performance programs teach children about the writing and creative process and allow Daryl to do what he feels is most important -- inspire children to read and write. He is a member of the SCBWI.
