I have written more than 70 books, most for young people of all ages. "Boys of Steel: The Creators of Superman" is the first and still only standalone biography of the young men who dreamed up the world's first superhero; it is an ALA Notable title that received multiple starred reviews and appeared on the front page of "USA Today." My picture book on the "secret" behind the creation of Batman comes out in 2012.
I have written extensively for Nickelodeon Magazine. I'm also a cartoonist whose works has appeared in more than 100 publications including "The Wall Street Journal" and "Forbes." I do not know how to draw sewing machines or SpongeBob SquarePants.
I blog behind-the-scenes tales of book research, promotion, and more at http://noblemania.blogspot.com/.
