Crystal Aria asked Chris Grabenstein:

Hi. Your books are AMAZING! How do you come up with all the wacky, fun and weird but cool things in your books?

Chris Grabenstein I usually see something interesting and ask myself, "What if...?" For instance, what if I could eat a candy like Smarties and become a smarty? That was the genesis for The Smartest Kid In The Universe series. Then, I let my imagination and improvisational-comedy scene building sills take over!
