==Biography==
Charles Buckles Falls was born on December 10, 1874, in Fort Wayne, Indiana. In his early twenties he moved to Chicago, where he began his career as an architect's assistant and as a sketch artist for the ''Chicago Tribune''. While working as an architect's assistant, he taught himself how to draft and ultimately became a freelance artist. Unhappy with his salary, Falls left the ''Chicago Tribune'' and moved to New York City around 1900. While in New York, he struggled to find work until he met the artist and author Joseph Pennell.〔
On March 15, 1917, he married Bedelia M. Croly, with whom he had a daughter, Bedelia Jane. Many of his books were dedicated to his daughter, including ''The ABC Book'', which he created to help her learn the alphabet.〔
Falls died on April 15, 1960, at the age of 85.〔
