Have you read any books by the following authors?

Jon Scieszka's Math Curse is a delight & everyone who enjoyed Watership Down will love Brian Jacques' Redwall series. Working with children so much, I read quite a few children's authors and a lot of their work is much more imaginative than the adult fiction.

boring boring boring

My favourite author of children's books is Astrid Lindgren.

no, none..
*correction, I have read part of a book by Brian Jacques, since I haven't finished it, I still won't mark it...

I feel all inferior and stuff now.

no.

Uh.... no. But I really like the Encyclopedia Brown books, and books by Zylpha Keatley Snyder, Betty K Erwin, Jane Langton, Betty Brock, Hilary Knight, and Maurice Sendak.

David Macauley

Nope. I have only heard of two of the authors. I'm pretty resistant to reading stuff from authors I've never encountered before. I like to start with a short story, if I like that then I will move onto a book.

I don't remember authors at all, only titles. I loved Swimmy and "Momma, do you love me?" for smaller kids, and still love the Book of Three, the Hobbit series, the Lion Witch & Wardrobe and other similar books for older kids. And Encyclopaedia Brown.

Salman Rushdie. No, really.

No.

Nancy Garden, Robin McKinley, Madeleine L'Engle, George MacDonald--these are the ones coming to mind at the moment. I hear that Ionesco wrote some children's books, which I'd love to read.

Pomeranian: "After the First Death" was by him, right? (awesome book)

nope, sorry

Robert Cormier ("I am the Cheese", "The Chocolate War") ruled my Young Adult reading world
anonymous: Yes! I loved that book too

Stupid question: What's "O.O.O."?

I feel so illiterate...I haven't even heard of some of these authors, never mind read their works.
**grmbrand: Obligatory Other Option.

Never heard of any of them

Haven't got any current ones, but some classics: E. Nesbit, L. Frank Baum, Tove Jansson, Margaret Wise Brown, O'Brien (can't remember first name - Mrs Frisby & the Rats of NIMH), E.B. White.

no - My son has read the Michael Jordan Scrapbook, the Anfernee Hardaway book from Beckett, but none of these authors looks familiar.

no.

No.

No

Phillip Pullman. In like, Year 7.
