Grant Snider began drawing and writing before he knew what he was doing. Soon it was too late to stop.

He is the author of the picture books WHAT COLOR IS NIGHT? and WHAT SOUND IS MORNING? and the creator of Incidental Comics. His comics were collected and published in the books THE SHAPE OF IDEAS and I WILL JUDGE YOU BY YOUR BOOKSHELF. Grant's comics about creativity and the human condition have appeared in The New York Times, The New Yorker, and The Best American Comics.

Grant lives in Wichita, Kansas with his wife, daughter, and three sons, where he also practices orthodontics. You can often find him carrying a sketchbook, lost in his own thoughts. ...more

Quotes by Grant Snider (?)

“I would never judge a book by its cover.
The spines, however, are a different story.
So if you invite me over - beware.
Once refreshments are served...
Games are played...
And songs are sung...
I will slip away.
And there, in a quiet room...
I WILL JUDGE YOU BY YOUR BOOKSHELF.”
― Grant Snider, I Will Judge You by Your Bookshelf

“One unfogged window.
One boy, watching.
One gnarled tree.
Three quiet deer.
Four rusty cars.
Seven wild sunflowers.
One bus ride at sunrise under an infinite sky.”
― Grant Snider, One Boy Watching
