When his kids left the country for a vacation, Bilson decided to become a children's author.
His first two written books for children were released out of order.
In the late 1980s, Bilson had begun writing a children's book about "a sort of conventional child who wants things to go right".
In 1981, Bilson's first published book for children was Goodbye Sarah.
In 1982, Bilson continued his children's writings with Death Over Montreal.
To make the book, Bilson used his previous research he performed for A Darkened House.
In Death Over Montreal, Bilson wrote about a Scottish family experiencing cholera after moving to Canada.
For a 1984 book by Charles G. Roland, Bilson wrote about Canadian healthcare for immigrants.
The following year, Bilson's journal article on Frederick Montizambert was published.
