Gail Gibbons in
her own words
I was born in Oak Park, Illinois, in 1944. Even as a little child, I was always busy putting books together.
Sometimes I would bind them with yarn to hold the pages together. I've always loved drawing and painting.

I was also a very curious child. My parents tell me that I was always asking lots and lots of questions.
Later, I went on to the University of Illinois, where I studied graphic design. Then I moved to New York City, where I got a job doing artwork for television shows.
Eventually I was asked to do the artwork for a children's show.

That book was called Willy and His Wheel Wagon. Since
