關於作者:
Marc Brown, who was born in Erie, Pennsylvania in 1946, received
great encouragement and support from his grandmother and uncle.
Inspired by the books of Maurice Sendak, Brown decided to pursue
his ambition of becoming an illustrator. After receiving a B.F.A.
in painting from the Cleveland Institute of Art, he worked as a TV
art director, a professor of mechanical drawing, and a freelance
illustrator, before becoming a writer. In his books, he addresses
the fears and problems which children face and events like
friendship, family, school and pets. For his illustrations, Brown
uses pencil with watercolor on a variety of papers to achieve
different visual effects. The "Arthur" series, about the everyday
adventures of a lovable aardvark, began in 1976 and continues to
this day with 25 titles published. Brown has also created other
series such as the "Rhymes" series, and the nonfiction "Dinosaur"
series, which conveys messages of do''s and don''ts. These series,
like the stories of Arthur, hold the attention of young children
while transporting their imaginations on magical journeys.
