Wallace Whitney Tripp (b.1940) is an American illustrator, anthologist and author. He is known for creating anthropomorphic animal characters of emotional complexity and for his great visual and verbal humor. He is one of several illustrators of the Amelia Bedelia series of children's stories. He has illustrated over 40 books, including Marguerite, Go Wash Your Feet (1985), Wallace Tripp's Wurst Seller (1981), Casey at the Bat (1978) and A Great Big Ugly Man Came Up and Tied His Horse to Me (1973). Tripp has also drawn many greeting cards for the Pawprints line, now available in limited quantities from Recycled Paper Greetings in Chicago. This is Wallace Tripp's first book for adults. He brings to this richly illustrated 'tour de farce' his singular point of view and inimitable style. The cast of characters ranges from Tom Mix and The Russet Lady to Little Bunny Wuffy and Tee Wee.
