James Serafino is an author-illustrator living in Brooklyn, NY. He grew up eating cereal and reading comics in the early mornings before anyone else was awake. Early on, he learned to draw and tell stories and never clean up after himself, unless he absolutely had to. These traditions carried on through art school in New York City and beyond. Crumbs and milk stains have damaged many of the paintings in this book, but he hopes you’ll enjoy it all the same.
