Carole Lexa Schaefer

    Carole Lexa Schaefer creëert verhalen voor kinderen, waarbij ze diep put uit haar ervaring met jonge leerlingen en haar eigen familie-erfgoed. Haar schrijfstijl combineert de lyrische toets van een dichter met de scherpe observatie van een journalist, wat resulteert in verhalende teksten die zowel suggestief als precies zijn. Schaefer streeft ernaar boeken te creëren die jonge lezers puur plezier bieden, terwijl ze subtiel de waardering voor verschillen en de vreugde van gedeelde ervaringen aanmoedigen.
