His 3<sup>rd<\/sup>&nbsp;book for children&nbsp;&nbsp;and one that has deep roots in Daniels\u2019s life journey, dealing with abandonment, bravery and love. Big Papa and the Time Machine recalls a past that Daniel could only imagine but the realities, facts and some fiction put it all together in this wonderful book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From his African American heritage, to remembering his Papa\u2019s story telling, Daniel captures the moments in this fictional depiction through the eyes of a 5 year old grandchild and his Big Papa.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniel relates how the Picture books convey some of the similarities of his vision loss and the depiction of the story illustrated by the artists drawing the pictures. How vision loss can blur the images and how memory can be a bit fuzzy in the mind. So too can what Daniel sees and doesn\u2019t see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join Daniel Bernstrom and Jeff Thompson as they open the story wide open and how Big Papa and the Time Machine came about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find all of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Daniel-Bernstrom\/e\/B01DCH8GCG%3Fref=dbs_a_mng_rwt_scns_share\">Daniel\u2019s books on Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/006235485X\/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i1\">One Day in the Eucalyptus Eucalyptus Tree<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0062463306\/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i2\">Gator, Gator, GATOR!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/0062463314\/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0\">Big Papa and the Time Machine<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find out more about\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/lillylabs.com\/\">Daniel Bernstrom<\/a>\u00a0and keep up with the latest on his <a href=\"http:\/\/lillylabs.com\/\">web site.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Be sure to check out Daniel\u2019s previous podcast on Blind Abilities when his first book,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/blindabilities.com\/?p=1969\">One Day in the Eucalyptus Eucalyptus Tree<\/a>.
