3 stars across 3 books

Justin LaRocca Hansen is a teacher, writer, illustrator, and artist. His first book, Monster Hunter , tells the story of a kid with a penchant for messes and a vivid imagination. As an artist, Justin's commissions are valuable, but he also places real value on reaching the audience of actual kids. For many years, he has taught in schools in Manhattan, the Bronx, and in Massachusetts. Justin received his artistic and undergraduate training at the Ringling College of Art and Design in Florida. Volume one of Secondhand Heroes , his epic graphic novel trilogy, will release in early 2016 from Penguin. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
