I have so many favorite author's, it's just too hard to pick a few to talk about.
One of my favorites would have to be Peggy Parish. She wrote the Amelia Bedelia series until she passed away in 1988. In 1995, her nephew, Herman Parrish, started the series back up again. I was looking through the publisher's website on the book, and I learned that they now have an Amelia Bedelia picture book about when she was a young child. It didn't say if it was out already, but I'm going to have to look for this book, and find out why she was so confuse.
Another favorite of mine is Eric Carle. He's the one that wrote The Very Hungry Caterpillar. His books can be used for kids of all ages. For my lessons that I have to do for my field based, I always turn to Eric Carle, to see if he has a book I am to use for a lesson.
Another one is Shel Silverstein. The poems that he has wrote are all funny. My favorite is The Giving Tree. This particular has two meanings, it could be about the tree, and from my perspective it's about a parents love.
I have many favorite author's, but I'll post a few more next time.
