First of all, thanks for taking the time to read my post and leave me a comment ;)

I consider that the prize of the class, instead of being for one of the authors, it has been for all of us, who had the chance to know a little bit more about the top ten of the Children’s Literature.

And it’s true, I was surprised by most of their stories! and not only the fictional ones, but their personal lives also. What a great project we had.

I enjoyed a lot your post because it is a good summary of many presentations and what happened that day in class, and as you said “every minute of the presentation was worthy”.
I have to admit that I never heard about Roald Dahl, but I saw the movies “Matilda” and “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”, so maybe I have to watch movies in another way to pay attention to who wrote that story.
My writer was E.B. White and, as you said, he wrote Stuart Little, but as your writer, he also has a prize named after his dead, so it reflects that those writers are so important for children’s literature and we have to keep them in our mind because can teach a lot of things to children that we can’t do as teachers, because the world of imagination was endless.
I know that we have to vote about what author is the best one, but I think the best part of the activity has been done yet: learn about 10 different authors of children’s literature and reflect about why they wrote that stories, because I’m sure that almost every of us were surprised about it with some authors.
