Illustrator : Dale Herron has been illustrating children’s books and
similar material for years, including the award-winning
Stories Heard Around the Lunch Room. A graduate of
the Columbus College of Art and Design, he lives in
Circleville, Ohio with his wife and son. His family is
very patient with the fact that Dale can’t seem to stop
making art. When he does get time away from the
drawing board, Dale enjoys family and friends, with an
occasional round of bad golf thrown in. He has worked
with Mr. Flanagan on many successful projects, and has
enjoyed bringing Jim’s stories to life.visualizza meno
