Drew Brockington has flown a space shuttle, repaired the International Space Station, and served in Mission Control—all during a week at Space Camp. He works at his drawing table and loves to use pencils until they are only little nubs. He has written and illustrated numerous graphic novels including the CatStronauts series, the Waffles and Pancake series, and Metropolis Grove. His picture books include Hangry, Puppy Bus, and Kitty Camp. He loves bad jokes and lives with his family and bulldog in Minneapolis. Drew also is a former EFA high school student.
From Here to There is a celebration of Drew’s storytelling and artistry, featuring twelve illustrations from some of his most beloved stories along with a sneak peek at the soon-to-be-released Abracadonut. With pencils, markers, inks, washes, and acrylic pens, Drew invites students on unforgettable creative adventures that spark curiosity, inspire imagination, and bring every page to life.
