According to his father Kevin Flynn, Chase has a pretty vivid imagination and has been consistently drawing these two characters since he was 5 years old. “He always wanted to see them in a cartoon or a comic book, and he even created the characters in a video game once,” he said. “I wanted to point him in the right direction so we sat down together and wrote a children’s book. We sat down to hash out their story of how they met.”
