Biographie de l'auteur

Paula Fox was born in New York City. She began writing books for children in the 1960s and by 1978 her contribution to children's literature was such that the International Board on Books for Young People (IBBY) awarded her the Hans Christian Andersen Medal, a biennial award for an author's entire body of work. Two of her most famous books for children are The Slave Dancer (a Newbery Medal Winner) and One-Eyed Cat (a Newbery Honor Book). She lives in Brooklyn, New York.

Karla Kuskin studied graphic design at Yale University, where she created her first children's book, Roar and More, which is still in print. Since then, she has written and illustrated over fifty books, among them The Philharmonic Gets Dressed; Dogs and Dragons, Trees and Dreams; City Dogs; and Moon, Have You Met My Mother? She won the National Council of Teachers of English Award for Poetry for Children and was the first recipient of Bank Street College of Education's lifetime achievement award. She lives on Bainbridge Island, Washington.

Revue de presse

"A fascinating look at an overlooked part of nature." --Kirkus Reviews

"The illustrations are elegant, decorative, and vivid. . . . Use this as a bridge between April Pulley Sayre and Joyce Sidman, or just to encourage language arts students to explore their own views of traces." --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

* "Paula Fox once again demonstrates her mastery of the vivid art of the written word. Traces is a wonderful resource that encourages quiet moments of one-on-one reading, group storytelling, and classroom study of effective writing." --Library Media Connection, starred review
