Award-winning author and illustrator Robert Sabuda developed an interest in pop-up books while still a child in middle school. Now his books have been named as Bank Street Best Books of the Year and ALA Notable Children’s Books and have received the CBC/NCSS Notable Children’s Book Award, among others. His best-selling pop-up books include Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, America the Beautiful and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. He is co-creator with Matthew Reinhart of the New York Times best-selling three-volume pop-up series Encyclopedia Prehistorica, and their latest collaboration is Encyclopedia Mythologica: Fairies and Other Magical Creatures (Candlewick, 2008). He lives in New York City.
