About the Author

Charlie Mylie is an author and illustrator living the dream in Kansas City, Kansas. Its only occurring to him now that his interdisciplinary art degree from Kansas City Art Institute might have actually helped in making childrens books. His wife and preschooler, however, have had a significant, obvious impact on his work and life, while the cat has contributed nothing. Mylie wants to keep exploring, for as long as he is allowed, how words and pictures—together—help us making sense of this confounding world. His books include Something for You, We Might See, and Out on a Limb.
