Chris Van Dusen

Chris Van Dusen writes: “I was born in Portland, Maine, on St. Patrick’s Day, 1960. As a child, my brothers and I would spend hours drawing pictures. We didn’t have video games or computers to entertain us, so we drew instead. One of my brothers would sketch intricate war scenes. Another would draw animals so realistic you’d swear they were breathing. My specialty was aliens, robots, and monsters.

“Dr. Seuss and Robert McCloskey were my heroes. I loved the rhythm of Dr. Seuss’ words and I was fascinated by the meticulous detail of Robert McCloskey’s illustrations. I had no idea back then that I’d end up writing and illustrating children’s books when I grew up.

Margaret Wise Brown

Margaret Wise Brown wrote hundreds of books and stories during her life, but she is best known for Goodnight Moon and The Runaway Bunny. Even though she died nearly 70 years ago, her books still sell very well.

Margaret loved animals. Most of her books have animals as characters in the story. She liked to write books that had a rhythm to them. Sometimes she would put a hard word into the story or poem. She thought this made children think harder when they are reading.

She wrote all the time. There are many scraps of paper where she quickly wrote down a story idea or a poem. She said she dreamed stories and then had to write them down in the morning before she forgot them.

She tried to write the way children wanted to hear a story, which often

I’m supposed to be writing something about myself for the author page on my new website but, to be honest, I spend most of my time being hugely surprised that I’m now a published writer (so you can imagine my reaction when I come across one of my books in a bookshop!). How I’ve managed to create and publish picture books when I can barely use the remote control is a constant source of wonder to both me and my family but… here I am!

I’ve come to the conclusion that the ‘about me’ bit should be big on shortness and short on boring-ness so I’m just going to tell you five things about me that no one knows (Shhh! They’re a secret!) and leave it at that…

Rođen je 20. travnja 1920. Ne zna se točno mjesto rođenja, nagađa se o Drveniku kod Konavala, gdje je proveo djetinjstvo ili Beogradu. Kao gimnazijalac smislio je slogan „Bilo kuda, Kiki svuda” za tvornicu Union (danas Kraš).
Boksačka karijera [uredi]

Počeo se baviti boksom u Dubrovniku. Meč karijere imao je u Dubrovniku, 11. travnja 1943. protiv prvaka Italije Lodovica Giobbija. Pobijedio ga je, što se slavilo kao pobjeda nad Talijanima, koji su u to vrijeme za Drugog svjetskog rata okupirali Dalmaciju. Slijedećeg dana, talijanske vlasti su ga zatvorile na neko vrijeme u tvrđavu Lovrijenac.

Bio je prvak Hrvatske u boksu 1945.. Poslije Drugog svjetskog rata, imao je meč s višestrukim olimpijskim pobjednikom, mađarskim boksačem Lászlóm Pappom.
