Blending sparse text with innovative uses of color, space, and perspective, Crews' picture books depict such diverse subjects as language arts, counting, and various modes of modern transportation. His first book, "We Read: A to Z," was noted as a sophisticated and fresh approach to illuminating language arts for children, while "Freight Train" and "Truck" showed his ability to both inform readers and tell powerful stories through images of every day objects and activities. Since "Freight Train" and "Truck", Crews has established himself as a distinctive picture book artist and has expanded into a whole series of books which imaginatively depict trans portation, motion, and energy in every day life. He and his wife, Ann Jonas, live in New York's Hudson River Valley.
