關於作者
Kate Douglas Wiggin (1856–1923) was an eminent American educator, reformer, and author, best known for her substantial contributions to children's literature during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in Philadelphia, Wiggin devoted much of her life to the welfare of children, which was reflected not only in her career but also in her literary works. Her narratives often interweave charming humor with social reform themes, particularly focusing on the lives and welfare of children. Wiggin's career as an author commenced with the publication of 'The Story of Patsy' in 1883, a work inspired by her experiences in the kindergarten movement. Perhaps her most renowned novel is 'Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm' (1903), a book that secured her position among the leading writers of children's fiction and remains a classic in the genre to this day. 'Timothy's Quest' (1890) is another noteworthy addition to her oeuvre, a poignant tale that showcases her flair for creating endearing characters and her sensitivity to the societal issues of her time. Wiggin's literary style often evokes a sense of nostalgia, with a clear, accessible narrative voice that resonates with both young and old readers alike. Her works continue to be celebrated for their contribution to children's literature and their insight into human nature and social conditions of her era.
