Robert Weinstock

Robert Weinstock (born April 8, 1967, in Philadelphia) is an American children's book author and illustrator.

[2] Some of his books were published under the pseudonym of Rowboat Watkins.

[4][5] His book Rude Cakes won an Ezra Jack Keats Honor in 2016.

[6][7] Pete With No Pants was reviewed by Kate Quealy-Gainer[8] who writes that it is a lovely, absurd little tale with humor both "jubilant and sardonic" and "it's bound to be a familiar situation to many a carefree, nudist kid and their exasperated, clothes-demanding parent".

On October 7, 2003, Weinstock was hit by a truck resulting in serious injuries and loss of much of his ability to taste.
