RL Stine wrote GooseBumps Series, Fear Street Series, Mostly Ghostly, and Beware to name a few.
RL Stine was born in 1943. His mom was named Ann and she was a housewife and his his father was Lewis Stine, a shipping clerk. He has a brother and sister, both younger tha he. His family calls him Bob.He loved to write when he was younger. His Mom wanted him to go outside and play, but he wanted to stay inside typing away on his typewriter, (Like a laptop but not). RL Stine was a B student and he was really mathematically challenged. He wrote books like, The BabySitter, Hit and Run,The Girlfriend, then he started with Fear Street. There are about 100 books in that series. But my favorite is the Goosebumps series. Goosebumps did so well, they started having episodes on television and later DVD. RL Stine loves his job because he says, " I get to give kids the creeps!"
Awesome Illustrator
Rosalie M. Shephard
Rosalie M Shephard is a published illustrator for a lot of educational books. She illustrated books like The Tuskegee Airmen Stroy, Girls Fly, Women Who Fly, Tuskegee Airmen American Heroes. She uses a lot of water color and the people she paints look realistic. I can imagine myself in her art.
