Meet the creators of BooBoos to the Rescue!
Two parents. One big imagination. A whole lot of laughs.
Leon Lai and Diana Coleman are the husband-and-wife team behind the story, the art, and the BooBoos’ world — made for family read-alouds and giggles at any age.
How it started
Real childhood BooBoos, turned into a storybook adventure
The book began with Leon’s childhood adventures with his twin brother, Paul — plus the legendary BooBoos that came with them. Diana took those big, silly moments and illustrated a world kids can jump into (and grown-ups can’t help but laugh at).

A peek behind the scenes
A little writing, a little drawing, and a lot of family fun and imagination — this is how the BooBoos come to life.
