If you are twelve or under, you have probably read -- and memorized -- at least one poem by Jack Prelutsky. He has written more than thirty books of verse, edited several enormously popular anthologies (and been extensively anthologized himself), translated a number of books, and is always at work on the poems for at least three future books. He has lived in Boston, Albuquerque, and Manhattan, but he says he is now happily settled in the Seattle area. Among his most popular books are The New Kid on the Block, Something Big Has Been Here, The Dragons Are Singing Tonight, and Monday's Troll.
If you love to laugh, you are probably a fan of James Stevenson. He has written and illustrated many books for readers of all ages, and illustrated both The New Kid on the Block and Something Big Has Been Here.
