The author and illustrator of three picture books --Zachary's Ball, Oliver's Game, and Mudball -- and the illustrator of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas -- all Candlewick Press titles – has had dreams of baseball all his life.  Zachary’s Ball, a classic picture book about a boy's baseball fantasies coming true, began as Matt Tavares's senior art thesis at Bates College in Maine. The subject was a natural choice for the author and illustrator, who had spent his childhood growing up in Boston as a Red Sox fan and always wanted to be a baseball player.  Matt lives right here in Maine (Ogunquit) with his wife and daughter (For more information on Matt’s books, please visit www.candlewick.com.)
