About the Author – Frank Thompson
Frank Thompson is a vibrant 91-year-old Author from West Texas, whose storytelling reflects the grit, charm, and authenticity of his remarkable life. Born and raised in a small Texas town, Frank has lived a life rich with hands-on experiences, working as a mechanic, pumping gas, and delivering uniforms and mail.

A graduate of Draughon’s Business College in Springfield, Missouri, Frank studied business administration and accounting. These skills sharpened his problem-solving abilities and creative thinking, even though his career path led him elsewhere.

Today, he channels that same dedication into his debut children’s book, A Little Boy Named Ted, an imaginative and heartfelt story set to delight young readers and families alike.
When he’s not writing, Frank’s entrepreneurial spirit shines through. He enjoys exploring online auctions, buying, and reselling unique finds. A skill honed from a decade running a used car lot and years spent repairing and reselling lawnmowers.

His stories are infused with the heart of West Texas living, the curiosity of a lifelong learner, and the warmth of a man who never stops dreaming.
