Tom Lichtenheldhas always enjoyed getting other people's kids all wound-up and silly, then sending them back home to their parents. One day, he realized he could get lots of other people's kids all wound-up and silly by writing children's books. His first book,Everything I Know About Pirates,received many rave reviews, and was selected by Newsweek magazine as one of the best children's books of 2000. Tom's favorite review is from a lady who said the book was so funny it made her snort iced tea out her nose, which he considers the highest praise a children's book could ask for.Tom lives in Illinois with his wife, Jan, their unusually hairy cat, Bruce, and a wide assortment of monsters.Lichtenheld, Tom is the author of 'Everything I Know About Monsters A Collection of Made-Up Facts, Educated Guesses, and Silly Pictures About Creatures of Creepiness' with ISBN 9780689843815 and ISBN 068984381X.
