Take Your Children on An Adventure to Meet 10 Famous Authors!
This award-winning book from Pierce Press introduces young readers to great works of literature and the authors who created them. By celebrating a diverse group of voices, the book paves the way for a lifetime of appreciating classic books.
Young readers will climb the hilly streets of Sui Sin Far’s San Francisco, chase a cocker spaniel through the streets of Virginia Woolf’s London, search the seas for Herman Melville’s white whale, and dance to the blues in Langston Hughes’s Harlem. Along the way, Zitkála-Ša tells the story of a talented girl who leaves her reservation to start a new school, María Amparo Ruiz de Burton describes a brave young woman who travels across the country in a covered wagon, and Taha Hussein introduces us to a boy who refuses to let his blindness stop him.
The book includes a “Become An Author” activity page for children and a bonus section for parents and educators with background information for each author as well as suggested topics to spark discussion with children.
