Blood on My Hands

Todd Strasser is the award-winning author of more than 120 books for children and teenagers, including Give A Boy A Gun, If I Grow Up and The Wave, which sold seven million copies worldwide. Several of his books have been adapted for television, and his novel How I Created My Perfect Prom Date became the feature release Drive Me Crazy. His books have been translated into more than a dozen languages, and he has also written for television, newspapers, and magazines such as The New Yorker, Esquire and The New York Times. Todd now divides his time between writing books and speaking at schools and conferences. When he's at home, he likes to spend time with his children, fish, play tennis and ski, but his favourite new sport is surfing.
