What an entertaining presentation! Mr. Cole is not only a gifted illustrator but a talented story teller. We spent 45 minutes completely engaged in hearing him tell the story of how he became an author and illustrator. He even drew a giant character on the sketch board!
Mr. Cole was born in 1955 in Purcellville, Virginia. He grew up on a dairy farm. He attended LCPS and now lives in Alexandria, Virginia. Before he was an illustrator, he was a science teacher. He has illustrated over 80 books. To watch an interview Mr. Cole gave to Reading Rockets, click here .
