Author Biography
When Kevin McCloskey was seven years old, he loved to ride his bike, paint pictures, and tell stories. Then Kevin grew up and became a college professor. He taught art and illustration at Kutztown University for thirty years. Now he's retired and the author of the critically acclaimed TOON Books "Giggle and Learn" series. His first TOON Book, We Dig Worms, was described as "a winning combination of facts and gross-out fun" by The New York Times. His wife (a librarian!) had asked for a fun worm book to read at the library, so he came up with an informative and silly story that evolved into a now beloved series of six. To this day, he still loves to ride his bike, paint pictures, and tell stories.
