About the Author:
Vic Parker is a Heinemann-Raintree author.
From Booklist:
Gr. 4-7. Parker's highly readable, illustrated biography, part of the Writers Uncovered series, discusses a beloved fantasy author's life and work for both his young fans and beginning writers. After a brief overview of Lewis' life, including his academic success and his friendship with Tolkien, the focus turns to Lewis' books, especially the Narnia series. For each title, Parker provides a double-page spread, including an outline of the plot, a print of the cover, and a brief discussion of the story. With numerous photos, prints, "Find out More" sidebars, and suggestions that encourage young writers to "give it a try," the book will attract an enthusiastic readership. Extensive back matter includes a detailed chronology, a glossary, and a brief bibliography. Others in the series include J. R. R. Tolkien, also by Parker. Hazel Rochman
