This is because I love researching so much. The type of books I write are non-fiction books. Since then, over 170 books that I have written and illustrated have been published. That book was called Willy and His Wheel Wagon. So I put an idea for a book together and right away a publisher bought it. My mind immediately recalled how much I enjoyed doing that type of thing when I was a child. While doing that show, some of the children asked me if I had ever thought of doing children's books. Eventually I was asked to do the artwork for a children's show. Then I moved to New York City, where I got a job doing artwork for television shows. Later, I went on to the University of Illinois, where I studied graphic design. My parents tell me that I was always asking lots and lots of questions. Sometimes I would bind them with yarn to hold the pages together. Even as a little child, I was always busy putting books together. From : I was born in Oak Park, Illinois, in 1944.
