Author Information

Will Henry is the creator behind Wallace the Brave, which earned the National Cartoonist Society's Newspaper Comic Strip of the Year award in only its second full year of syndication. Will draws his inspiration from everyday life, and in the age of the smartphone, he aims to re-create a world in which kids still collect bugs and fly kites and eat ice cream cones upside-down. He lives in Jamestown, Rhode Island, with his wife, two children, his cat, and his mistress, the sea.
