Doc Rosco
Author of Rick the Truck
The story of Rick the Truck began with tall tales of an old wooden bed pickup truck and fantastic adventures; then transformed into a simple idea: what if trucks had feelings, dreams, and adventures just like kids do? From that spark, an entire world was born — full of challenging roads, brave rescues, lessons learned and friendships that last forever.
With a passion for reading and a love for making kids of all ages laugh; Doc Rosco set out to create books that children would want to read again and again. Rick the Truck is the result — a series that parents love reading aloud (well maybe except for the Truck Ruckus) and kids love to read and imagine even MORE adventures for Rick and his friends!

Illustrator of Rick the Truck
Every bold line, every bright color, every goofy expression on Rick's face — that's the illustrator's magic. Bringing Rick and his friends to life on the page is a labor of love that starts with hundreds of sketches and ends with the cartoon world you see in the books.
With a background in children's illustration and a lifelong love of classic cartoons, the illustrator's style is instantly recognizable: thick outlines, punchy colors, and characters so expressive you can almost hear them talking.
