About this ebook
Represented in this compendium of biographical essays is a considered cross section of young readers' favorite authors and illustrators from, primarily, the twentieth century. Volume Six of this collection serves as an excellent introduction to a few of those storytellers most beloved by children, from Ferdinand Mondo to Chris Raschka. Every entry includes a photograph of the author or illustrator, reproductions of book covers, quotes from and about the subject, and interesting facts. A selected bibliography of each person's work (through 2006) is included, along with a list of suggested resources, both print and online, for further study.
