John grew up in Montreal, Quebec (Canada!). Since he was old enough to pick up a crayon, John has loved drawing and colouring (mostly outside the lines!). John has worked as a graphic designer and illustrator for over 15 years. Recently, he has decided to take the stories he had been making up for his kids and turn them into stories for everyone. Ricky the Rocket is his first foray into the wonder-filled world of children's literature. There will be more to come!
