Mer om författaren

KEVIN SYLVESTER has written and illustrated more than thirty books for young readers, including the award-winning Apartment 713, the MiNRS trilogy, the Neil Flambé Capers, the Hockey Super Six series, and the nonfiction titles Follow Your Stuff, Follow Your Money, Basketballogy, and Baseballogy. He co-wrote, with Basil Sylvester, the Governor General’s Award-shortlisted The Fabulous Zed Watson! and The Night of the Living Zed. Kevin was once a sportscaster and radio host, and now spends much of his time avoiding work by walking his dog and watching sports. He was also a pretty good soccer player—a mean defender with a shot and zero dribbling skills. Then he got old. Kevin lives in Toronto.
