Doris Gates

    Doris Gates, een levenslange inwoonster van Californië, was jarenlang bibliothecaresse. Ze wordt echter vooral herinnerd om haar geliefde kinderboeken, waarvan Blue Willow het bekendste en meest invloedrijke is. Dit werk wordt algemeen beschouwd als de eerste realistische roman voor kinderen die zich bezighield met belangrijke problemen. Het werd erkend zowel om zijn blijvende literaire waarde als om de verbreding van het scala aan onderwerpen die geschikt waren voor kinderliteratuur.
