About the Author
Tom Birdseye grew up in North Carolina and Kentucky, an ardent fan of anything that smacked of sports, crawdads, mud balls, forts built in the woods, secret codes, bicycles without fenders, butter pecan ice cream, and snow. He was, however, decidedly uninterested in writing-or any academic aspect of school, for that matter-never imagining that at the age of thirty-five he would become a published author. He is the author of well-received children's books such as Attack of the Mutant Underwear, a Georgia Children's Book Award finalist, and A Tough Nut to Crack. He lives in Corvallis, Oregon, with his wife, Debbie and two daughters, Kelsey and Amy. When not writing or in classrooms talking with children and teachers about the writing process, he enjoys skiing, rock and mountain climbing, ski mountaineering, backpacking, mountain biking, kayaking, running, playing the string bass, and reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a very good book for children,
By A Customer
This review is from: I'm Going to Be Famous (Hardcover)
I am a member of the Oregon Coast 5th grade class Tom Birdseye wrote this book about!! I've been looking for it forever. It is a very funny book and kids will surely enjoy it. If the author reads this: this is Treena from "laura and treena" fame. I remember how you would always say you were going to write this book, and congratulations on your success as an author!!
