Contested prod by an IP (likely the creator). The subject of this article is non-notable. Hanson's only claim to faim is winning the Teachers' Choice Award, a non-notable award. None of the references establish this author's notability. The first reference is a biography about him from his own publisher. The second reference is to the site where he won the Teachers' Choice Award but his name is not even mentioned on the page. A Google search to this site with Hanson's name also returns no results. The third and last reference is to a list of books by Hanson on Amazon.com. He's written an assortment of books but none of them are notable. I also did three Google News searches on this author. None return a result about him. This person definitely fails WP:BIO. Cunard (talk) 20:41, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete I see one of his books (Cool cards : creating fun and fascinating collections!) in about 200 libraries, and the many others in less than 100 each. For this sort of material, I don't think that amounts to notability. DGG (talk) 22:23, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
