Matthew Hawk simply refuses to grow up. A forever fan of childhood, the artistic, eccentric poet writes silly stories to make kids laugh and explore. Working with children and families in a medical crisis, Hawk felt a need to lift these children up and bring some silliness to their difficult day. This need led to the birth of the Silly Book Series! Matthew Hawk earned his MFA in Creative Writing from Full Sail University and graduated valedictorian. When he is not writing children's books, he writes historical fiction, screenplays, and songs on his guitar.
