Chen Chunren, a tour leader from Central China's Henan province, has become a prolific writer, penning 26 adventure books over five years to quench his daughter's thirst for adventure books, reports thepaper.cn.

Chen began writing in 2013 after his daughter fell in love with adventure stories after she read "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" when she was in the third grade. She quickly learned how to read faster than her father could afford to buy books.
