Albert Strasser is a children's book author and illustrator. A devoted student of life, he loves creating children's stories that are as insightful as they are fun, and as meaningful to grownups as they are to kids. Albert's critically acclaimed debut children's story, Afraid of the Light, became an instant medium-seller, and was described by one reviewer as "The best children's book I've ever read!*" (*Disclaimer: this reviewer may or may not have been Albert's Mom). When he's not writing or illustrating, Albert can most often be found eating pastries and drinking tea with his imaginary pet salamander, Sir Hugh Hamilton Rotheschilde Sr. the Fourth.
