George Sweetland

George Sweetland has been drawing ever since he could hold a crayon without being tempted to eat it. When he isn't illustrating or teaching elementary school students, he's most likely enjoying a classic eighties movie or album. He lives with his patient wife and their two sons in Connecticut. This is his first officially published picture book.
