Hicks takes his children on these journeys to "introduce them to the world they are about to dive into as adults." He hopes that seeing and being a part of other cultures will broaden his children's perspectives and give them some insight about what life may bring in the future. Hicks said he wrote the books to encourage people to "put down their phones and to connect with those near to them and across the world."
