Über den Autor
Frank Richard Stockton (April 5, 1834 - April 20, 1902) was an American writer and humorist, best known today for a series of innovative children's fairy tales that were widely popular during the last decades of the 19th century.Stockton avoided the didactic moralizing common to children's stories of the time. Instead, he humorously poked fun at greed, violence, abuse of power and other human foibles, describing his fantastic characters' adventures in a charming, matter-of-fact way in stories like The Griffin and the Minor Canon (1885) and The Bee-Man of Orn (1887).These last two stories were republished in 1963 and 1964, respectively, in editions illustrated by Maurice Sendak. The Griffin and the Minor Canon won a Lewis Carroll Shelf Award in 1963.
