Über den Autor
Halfdan Rasmussen's poetry is a fundamental part of the children's literary canon in Denmark; his works are constantly being republished, and many have been set to music. While Rasmussen's children's verse is loved for its infectious rhyme, his adult-oriented writing is deeply concerned with social issues and human rights. Sadly, Halfdan Rasmussen passed away in 2002, but prior to his death, he granted Ms. Nelson express permission to produce English versions of his works.Marilyn Nelson is an award-winning author and poet for adults and children. The recipient of a Newbery Honor for Carver: A Life in Poems, she is also a professor of English at the University of Connecticut at Storrs and Poet Laureate of the State of Connecticut.Pierre Pratt was the first ever recipient of the UNICEF/Bologna Book Fair Illustrator of the Year prize. He lives in Quebec, Canada.
