9780670699506: They Were Strong and Good

Synopsis

In the simple prose of a young and slightly boastful boy, with every sentence or two made vivid by a full-page drawing, he has set down the childhood impressions of his father and mother and of their fathers and mothers. Drawings and text together make a stiffing picture of the average American family background.

About the Author

Robert Lawson (1892-1957) received his art training at the New York School of Fine and Applied Arts. His favorite medium, pen and ink, is used expressively and with detail in his black and white illustrations in The Story of Ferdinand (by Munro Leaf). In addition to illustrating many children's books, including Mr. Popper's Penguins, Robert Lawson also wrote and illustrated a number of his own books for children. In 1940, he was awarded the Caldecott Medal for his picture book illustrations in They Were Strong and Good and in 1944, he was awarded the Newbery Medal for his middle grade novel Rabbit Hill.
