Robert Sabuda

He is credited as Robert Clarke Sabuda on Amazon for several pop-up books. This is apparently in error as he did several joint projects with Clement Clarke Moore and somewhere along the line the names must have been merged as "Robert Clarke Sabuda" when importing the data into Amazon. The cover images clearly show either "Robert Sabuda" or "Clement Clarke Moore & Robert Sabuda." See [1]
