About The Author
George L. Hayes
George Leonard Hayes, originally from Washington, D.C., now calls Atlanta, Georgia home. For most of his career, he’s devoted himself to educating and mentoring youth and young adults — helping them find direction, discipline, and a sense of who they are. That same discipline shaped him as a professional boxer, where focus and perseverance weren’t optional; they were survival.
Those two worlds — mentoring kids and training as a fighter — meet on the page. George writes to explore spiritual themes and invite readers to reconnect with their deeper selves and their Creator. His work carries the simplicity of the Gospel at its core, encouraging readers to live out its truth in ordinary, everyday moments.
Journey into a Child's Imagination

Through A Child’s Eyes is built around peace, nature, and the purity of childhood wonder, carrying readers through a heartfelt journey of self-awareness and growth.

Through A Child's Eyes!
Through A Child’s Eyes follows one boy through the innocence and wonder of childhood — from lazy afternoons in the meadow to the sting of being bullied on the school bus, from missing an absent father to standing in the wreckage of a hurricane that nearly took his aunt’s life. Through it all, he keeps returning to the same quiet place inside himself: peace and harmony, always waiting for him, always his to find again.
It’s a story about noticing — the sun on your skin, the smell of your father’s cologne, the ache of gratitude you can’t quite explain until life shows you what it means to almost lose something. A tender reflection on family, resilience, and the simple joys we’re too busy to see.

Why Children Notice Things We've Stopped Seeing
A child lying in a meadow can turn a cloud into a pillow and a breeze into a friend. Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, most of us lose that lens. Here’s what it costs us — and how Through A Child’s Eyes tries to hand it back.
The Peace You Can't Explain to Anyone Else
In the book, the narrator calls it “peace and harmony” — a presence he feels but can never quite describe. It’s one of the most relatable parts of childhood: knowing something is real long before you have words for it.
What a Hurricane Taught a Child About Gratitude
It took seeing his cousins’ home in ruins for the narrator to understand what his mother meant by gratitude. A look at how the book turns disaster into one of its most important lessons.
