Bianca Ryans is a fifteen year-old writer and artist who lives in California. She is a junior at Chaminade High School in West Hills. Her goal is to inspire people through her words and artwork. Bianca was inspired to write Wally’s Wish because as a teenager, it can be difficult to figure out who you want to be as an adult while you are still so young. Wally’s Wish is a coming of age story, encouraging children to take their time growing up. After all, the more time spent in childhood will result in a very well-rounded adult.
