This middle-grade biography explores the life and works of Madeleine L'Engle --written by her granddaughters.
This elegant and insightful biography of Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) was written by her granddaughters, Charlotte Jones Voiklis and Léna Roy. Using never-before-seen archival materials that include photographs, poems, letters, and journal entries from when Madeleine was a child until just after the publication of her classic, A Wrinkle in Time, her granddaughters weave together an in-depth and unique view of the famous writer. It is a story of overcoming obstacles--a lonely childhood, financial insecurity, and countless rejections of her writing--and eventual triumph. Becoming Madeleine will speak not only to fans of the icon's work, but also to anyone interested in writing. This title has Common Core connections.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Square Fish/Farrar Straus GirouxISBN-13:9781250870278ISBN-10:1250870275UPC:9781250870278Book Category:Juvenile NonfictionBook Subcategory:Biography & Autobiography, Books & LibrariesBook Topic:LiterarySize:8.90 x 5.90 x 0.50 inchesWeight:0.66Product ID:SCT6EHJ7RZ
