About Matthew
Matt McElligott is the double-talking author of many half-baked books for children including The Lion's Share, Bean Thirteen, and two Backbeard the Pirate adventures. He sleeps on half a double bed and puts half-and-half in his double espresso. He loves cake but hates to share, even with an elephant.
