Timothy Basil Ering is the illustrator of the Newbery Medal winner The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo as well as Walrus Song by Janet Lawler, Finn Throws a Fit! by David Elliott and Snook Alone by Marilyn Nelson. He is also the author-illustrator of The Story of Frog Belly Rat Bone, Necks Out for Adventure!, The Almost Fearless Hamilton Squidlegger and The Unexpected Love Story of Alfred Fiddleduckling.

The author’s naturalistic paintings are superb, brilliantly expressive… a cautionary tale about the dangers posed to wildlife by balloons floating free, as well as a powerful story of believing in oneself.
