SORCHE FAIRBANK


SORCHE FAIRBANK lives outside of Boston, Massachusetts, and in New York’s Hudson Valley. While the first picture books she ever loved tended to involve animals (church mice, an elephant king, circus koalas, a pig with a talking bone), her nephews’ passion for stories about trucks won her over. Trucks on Trucks is her first picture book.
