Paul Fleischman spins three engrossing stories about the unexpected ways an artist’s creations reveal truths – tales whose intriguing plots and many moods will entertain readers and inspire future writers.

Since then, he has crafted an ever more innovative library of books, including ZAP, a play for high school students mixing seven plays in one, and the horror novel parody A FATE TOTALLY WORSE THAN DEATH.
