Jason Hendrickson
is an author and illustrator who currently lives and works in Northwest Indiana with a patient wife, two grown children, a cat, and three border collies, which is likely more than legally allowed. He has been drawing for as long as he could hold a crayon, much to the chagrin of his mother and the walls of her house. While being an illustrator on a variety of other picture books through the years, this is his first foray into authorship, and, frankly, he’s as surprised as you are.
Hardcover, 32 pages, 8.5 x 8.5 inches
