Clay Anderson is husband to Karen, and father to two boys and two girls. Since becoming a father, he has found himself enchanted by the sublime magic of children’s picture books. And after reading dozens and dozens of great books to his children, he decided it was time to write his own.

Clay was raised in the Chicago suburbs, and his roots there are deep; he recently moved his family into the same house where he grew up. He works in IT during the day, but has served as a youth pastor, and has worked with children and youth for more than twenty years.
