A Tennessee boy has become an author at the young age of four.

According to Local3News, King Chambers ,4, recently wrote a book titled "King The Dream," which depicts a superhero who teaches others how to read.

The book is based off the life of King, who learned to read at the age of two, his mother, Jennifer Ellis said.

"He loves reading, he loves math, he is just very very smart," Ellis said. "And I read books to him all the time, even when he was in the womb I read books, and he love it."tt

Once King learned how to read, he began asking his mom to write books of his own, the mother said.

"And he came up with he could teach kids how to read, and so we helped him put it all together and put his dream in a book," Ellis recalled.

Ellis said her son is proud of how the book turned out.

"He loves to teach kids how to read, any time he sees a kid he let them know about his book, and they are so excited because there is nothing like having your own peer teach you how to read," she said.

Ellis said she doesn't have any special tricks on how to teach a child to read, but reading to them every night may help.

"There is no rule book to parenting but just give them 100% the best of you, and all the love because they're our future," Ellis said.
