Jon Scieszka

    8 september 1954

    Jon Scieszka wordt geprezen om zijn vermogen om klassieke verhalen te deconstrueren en opnieuw te vertellen vanuit frisse, onverwachte perspectieven. Zijn stijl is speels en ironisch, waarbij hij vaak de verwachtingen van de lezer ondermijnt door bekende verhalen te presenteren met een humoristische maar inzichtelijke twist. Scieszka gebruikt meesterlijk taal om zijn personages en hun motivaties tot leven te brengen, en creëert werken die zowel vermakelijk als tot nadenken stemmend zijn. Zijn schrijven verkent vaak thema's als vertellen, waarheid en perspectief, waardoor hij een onderscheidende stem in de kinderliteratuur is geworden.

You have 3 shirts and 2 pairs of pants. Can you make 1 good outfit? Then you start to wonder: Why does everything have to be such a problem? Why do 2 apples always have to be added to 5 oranges? Why do 4 kids always have to divide 12 marbles? Why can't you just keep 10 cookies without someone taking 3 away? Why? Because you're the victim of a Math Curse. That's why. But don't despair. This is one girl's story of how that curse can be broken.
