Tim Myers is a big personality, with energy pulsing off him, great waves of it. His children’s books have earned a Smithsonian Notable Book award and a National Council for the Social Studies and the Children’s Book Council. Basho and the Fox was a New York Times bestseller. He has a new children’s book, published by Sterling Children’s Books, Down at the Dino Wash Deluxe.

Steers introduced the first children’s book that he both wrote and illustrated, Tractor Mac Arrives at the Farm—originally published by Golden Books. He has continued to create and self-publish more children’s books in his Tractor Mac series. We talked to him about the inspiration behind the lovable Tractor Mac and why kids so readily embrace books about “things that go.”
