Brock Cole

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Brock Cole (born May 29)[1] is an American children's author. He has written many books and also does illustrations. The subject matter of his novels and novellas aimed at young adults is more controversial than the average juvenile fiction writer but he has become well known for his style and form.

[edit] Books

While he has written many children's books, amongst them Buttons, he is best known for his novels and novellas for young adults.

  • The Goats (1987)
  • Celine (1989)
  • The Facts Speak For Themselves (1997)

Cole is said to be "a writer who knows and respects the audience for whom he is writing"[2] and this is part of his charm as a writer.
