Matthew McElligott is the author of many books for children, including Mad Scientist Academy: The Dinosaur Disaster, Even Monsters Need Haircuts, and the Benjamin Franklinstein series. Like a cumulonimbus cloud, he is associated with hot air, gray skies, and raining on parades. In spite of this, a beautiful woman named Christy married him and now helps him with all his books.
