Vikram Madan, Poet/Illustrator of A Hatful of Dragons

Vikram Madan grew up in India where, despite spending his childhood rhyming and doodling, he ended up an engineer. After many years of working in tech, he finally came to his senses and followed his heart back into living the authentic creative life. When not making whimsical paintings and public art, he writes funny poems and books for kids, including the 2023 Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor book OWL & PENGUIN, the award-winning poetry collections A HATFUL OF DRAGONS, THE BUBBLE COLLECTOR, and LORD OF THE BUBBLES, and the BOBO & PUP-PUP early readers. He lives near Seattle, Washington, USA. @ArtByVikram
