Artie Bennett dreamed of being an author. His dreams came true with the publication of THE BUTT BOOK, now a classic children’s book loved by all. It brought Mike Lester the coveted Reuben Award, bestowed by the National Cartoonists Society, for its side-splitting illustrations. Artie is delighted to share THE TENTH MAN: A MIRACLE OF JEWISH FAITH AND FRIENDSHIP IN NEW ORLEANS, his moving, new nonfiction picture book, with young readers. It’s a book brimming with heart and humor. Booklist praised it as “a uniquely American Jewish story about faith and community.” He is also the author of an inspiring, humorous picture-book biography of a hapless, though much-adored, horse, THE TRUE STORY OF ZIPPY CHIPPY: THE LITTLE HORSE THAT COULDN’T, which won the Magnolia Book Award, given by the children of Mississippi. Artie has written other acclaimed hilarious rhyming picture books: POOPENDOUS!, his “number two” book; PETER PANDA MELTS DOWN, an adorable departure from derrières and doo; the explosively funny BELCHES, BURPS, AND FARTS—OH MY!, and WHAT’S AFOOT! YOUR COMPLETE, OFFBEAT GUIDE TO FEET, guaranteed to knock your socks off. He lives in Brooklyn, New York, where he spends his time moving his car to satisfy the stringent demands of alternate-side-of-the-street parking. HuffPost says: “It appears there is no topic Mr. Bennett can’t make funny and educational.”
