Since then, I have illustrated many books for children, including Frindle by Andrew Clements, The Doll People by Ann Martin and Laura Godwin, Amelia and Eleanor Go for a Ride by Pam Muñoz Ryan and The Dinosaurs of Waterhouse Hawkins by Barbara Kerley, which received a 2001 Caldecott Honor. My first book, The Houdini Box, which I both wrote and illustrated, was published in 1991 while I was still working at the bookstore. While I was at Eeyore’s I also painted the windows for holidays and book events. I learned all about children’s books from my boss Steve Geck who is now an editor of children’s books at Greenwillow. I studied at The Rhode Island School of Design and after I graduated from college I worked at Eeyore’s Books for Children in New York City. I have a sister who is a teacher, a brother who is a brain surgeon, and five nephews and one niece. My name is Brian Selznick and I’m the author and illustrator of The Invention of Hugo Cabret.
