Clyde Robert Bulla (1914-2007) was born on a farm near King City, Missouri. He attended a one-room country school where reading and writing were his favorite subjects. By the age of seven, Bulla knew he wanted to be a writer. After years of writing magazine stories and novels and working on his hometown newspaper, he realized his true passion was writing for children. Over 70 of his books for young readers have been published.
Thomas B. Allen (1928-2004) was an American expressionist painter and illustrator. He was instrumental in the rise of visual journalism in the 1950s and 1960s.
