BOOKS

CatStronauts

CatStronauts—you are needed! When the world is in danger, only the best space cats on earth can save us all. Meet fearless commander Major Meowser, brave-but-hungry pilot Waffles, genius technician and inventor Blanket, and quick-thinking science officer Pom Pom on their most dangerous and important missions in the galaxy. This graphic novel series is a lively world populated entirely by cats, brimming with jokes, charm, science, and enough big boxes and tuna sandwiches for everyone!

Drew

I graduated from Kalamazoo College with a degree in Art and Art History, and soon found myself in Central Park working for Christo and Jeanne Claude on “The Gates” artwork installation in the winter of 2005. I stayed in New York as a graphic designer, using my illustration to help create custom logos and stationery pieces. In my spare time, I would doodle in my sketchbook, as well as, participate in cheese eating contests.


In late 2012, My wife and I relocated to Minneapolis. There, I refocused my efforts into writing and illustrating for kids. I currently draw and create stories in my art studio, while my dog, Leroy, snores nearby. I love comics and will never shy away from a pun.
