Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
The doyenne of children's literature, Shirley has won the Kate Greenaway Medal and the prestigious Eleanor Farjeon Award for her services to children's literature., About Shirley:Shirley Hughes was born and brought up in West Kirby, near Liverpool, and studied at Liverpool Art School and the Ruskin School of Fine Art, Oxford. She began to write and design her own picture books when she had a young family and has now published over 50 titles. In 2007, she celebrated her 80th birthday.About My Work:"What I like to draw best is people, preferably out of my head - people in motion, involved in relationships with one another, in dramatic events or domestic ones, in situations which are funny or sad, fantastic, farcical, realistic or romantic. And observing children, their movements, expressions, absorbed unconscious grace, is an endless challenge. Luckily my window looks out onto a London square garden, where there are always children playing - chasing one another, pushing doll's prams, kicking balls, riding bicycles, quarrelling, and generally fooling around. This activity is as important part of civilized society as having the right kind of books and pictures available to everybody, and as having time to mooch about on your own if you want to, without anyone telling you what you ought to be doing, or thinking, or reading next. It's certainly the stuff of which inspiration is made."Three Things You Didn't Know About Shirley:1. She has lived in the same house in Notting Hill, West London for about 50 years.2. She has three grown-up children and seven grandchildren who keep her on her toes.3. In her spare time she likes looking at paintings, sewing, and wandering about with a sketchbook.
