Dick has illustrated about seventy-five books for children and has contributed single illustrations, or small groups of illustrations, to many additional books. Fairy tales have frequently been his subject matter, though he has also had substantial experience recreating the licensed characters of Disney, Dr. Seuss, the Muppets, Sesame Street, and others. He has recently illustrated many books on biographical subjects from Descartes to Babe Ruth, for Random House`s "Step Into Reading" series. He enjoys energetic, lighthearted, and flamboyant projects.
