Having a bear in my downtown back yard reminded me of this author/illustrator and his Moonbear series of books. He taught at a public school in India, and also in the US at a Montessori school. He was born in New Jersey, lived in Vermont with his family and retired to Hawaii. His heroes growing up were Roy Rogers, Bob Dylan and Maurice Sendak, and Professor Pritchard at art college. This author urges young writers to "have fun putting words on the paper," as he has done in more than 80 books, often sitting under his "thinking tree." This is dog lover Frank Asch, who lived from1946-2022.
