Krosoczka
has been passionate about storytelling through words and pictures since
he was a kid. He began his professional career by illustrating
educational readers for a national publisher while still an
undergraduate at Rhode Island School of Design. Then, just six months
after graduation, Jarrett received his first contract for a trade book
that he authored. Random House Children’s Books published Good Night, Monkey Boy on June 12, 2001 and Jarrett hasn’t stopped or slowed down since. He currently has authored and illustrated sixteen published books—ten picture books and six graphic novels.
He is the two-time winner of the Third to Fourth Grade Book of the Year
in the Children’s Choice Book Awards and has seen his work recommended
by national publications like Newsweek, The New York Times and USA Today.
His Punk Farm and Lunch Lady series are both in development to be
feature films. Jarrett is happily living out his childhood dream in
Northampton, Massachusetts, where he resides with his wife and daughter
and their pug, Ralph Macchio. |
