About the Author

He taught in a variety of nursery schools and daycare centers while he earned an MA in Early Childhood Education. In 1975, Munsch and his wife, Ann, moved to Guelph, Ontario. The Munschs have three children: Julie, Andrew, and Tyya.

Michael Martchenko has illustrated over 30 books for children and has exhibited his work throughout North America. He has won numerous awards for design and illustration. He lives with his wife, Patricia, in Toronto.

Editorial Reviews

A great value in terms both of its content and its cost, Munschworks 4 would be a fine gift for an individual child or would make a most useful addition to school or public library collections. Highly Recommended.
