About This Item
Synopsis
Born and raised in Toronto, author Michael Bedard didn’t spend his youth dreaming of being an author: he was too busy enjoying being a child, exploring the lush ravines and wild haunts of the city. His easy affinity with the thoughts of children and his appetite for exploration are evident in the subjects he chooses to write on. may of his books combine his love of literature with history, introducing to young children the elusive poetess Emily Dickinson, the cool but imaginative Brontë siblings and the strong-willed author Willa Cather as a child. He is the winner of the Governor General’s Literary Award (1990) and the Canadian Library Association Book of the Year Award for Children (1991), both for his novel, Redwork. The Clay Ladies tells the story of a young girl’s encounter with two well-known Toronto sculptors of the 1940s and 50s, Frances Loring and Florence Wyle. The book won the Municipal Chapter of Toronto IODE Book Award and the 200 Tiny Torgi Award, and was a finalist for the Mr. Christie’s Book Award. Stained Glass follows the story of Charles Endicott and what he discovers about himself and his past as he follows a homeless girl through the streets of his hometown on a warm summer day. From the Hardcover edition.
