The Little Dump Truck

Margery Cuyler has written more than 50 books, most recently The Little Fire Truck, The Little Ice Cream Truck, and Bonaparte Falls Apart. When asked why she writes children’s books, she answers that it’s a privilege to write for the best people in the whole world. In addition, she says she was raised by children, being the youngest of nine children. Her earlier titles include the classics Skeleton Hiccups and 100th Day Worries. She and her husband, the parents of two grown sons, live in Lawrenceville, NJ.

Bob Kolar lives in Kansas City. He makes fun things for kids to read and play with. Most days he’s in his studio drawing and writing and goofing around with his studio pal Wallace, a spunky golden retriever.
