About the Cover Artist
Tim Jessell draws and paints in Stillwater, Oklahoma. He and his wife are raising three great children, whom
he coaches in many sports. When not playing catch or illustrating, Tim trains falcons for the sport of falconry.
Occasionally, he can still be found making a racket behind his drum set, with kids dancing around.
