You can find her walking on Chicago’s Lakefront Trail on cool, crisp fall days.
Jon Klassen is a Canadian-born author-illustrator. His books include I Want My Hat Back; This Is Not My Hat, winner of the Caldecott Medal; and We Found A Hat. He is a member of the Order of Canada in recognition of his contributions to children's literature. He currently lives in Los Angeles with his wife and two sons.
"Leaning heavily on its delightfully whimsical qualities, Book 2 of Timberlake and Klassen's endearing series also boasts a whole lot of heart, perhaps even more so than its predecessor. Even as its often fantastical premise careens over the edge (and thrillingly so), the series' titular duo keep it grounded thanks to Timberlake's clear admiration for these characters and their quirks. Klassen's artwork, meanwhile, continues to awe with its wistfulness. As wonderful as Important Rock Work."
--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"Timberlake creates an irresistible mix of high stakes, laugh-out-loud moments, and truly unexpected plot twists . . . making for an unforgettable expedition. Klassen's chapter illustrations . . . further heighten the story's charm and humor. All told, it's a wonderful read."
--Booklist, starred review
"Quirky, comical . . . Tender and outrageously funny . . . Skunk and Badger return for a thrilling and poignant adventure in this second hilarious title in the series by award-winning duo Amy Timberlake and Jon Klassen."
--Shelf Awareness, starred review
"Skunk and Badger are lovely books, beautifully written, often laugh-out-loud funny, a winning combination of science and whimsy, with wondrous, droll, sepia-shaded ink illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Jon Klassen."
--The Buffalo News
