This creator was born in New Jersey in 1956, the youngest of five chidren, in a family where art supplies were abundant. His love of drawing led him to the Rhode Island School of Design, and a career that began illustrating books by others. But it was his own wordless book Free Fall that won the Caldecott Honor Medal for illustration in 1988. His later Caldecott Medal winner featured frogs floating through a sleepy town, and in another of his books a science project sends up seedlings which fill the sky with giant vegetables.This imaginative, humorous illustrator is David Wiesner.
