Appendix B. About the Illustrator
Ben Claassen III is originally from New Orleans, but currently lives in Washington, DC. He has been drawing big foreheaded people without noses for a very long time. He stays up every night ‘til the wee hours of the morning with ink all over his fingers, dreaming of life in a castle on the beach with a swimming pool moat around it and an underwater pirate bar that would have a talking parrot for a bartender. The parrot would wear a small blue tuxedo and would be able to speak French, German, and a little bit of Japanese.
Ben likes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, people who send him drawings of monsters, and dancing lemurs with tiny red cowboy boots. He can be contacted through his website, bendependent.com, or through killoggs.com.
