AUTHORS ABOUT THE AUTHOR WRITINGS

Neil Gaiman Neil Gaiman was born in Hampshire, A study in Emerald


UK, and now lives in the United States  
near Minneapolis. As a child he  
discovered his love of books, reading, Duran Duran
and stories, devouring the works of C.S.  
Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, James Branch  
Cabell, Edgar Allan Poe, Michael The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two
Moorcock, Ursula K. LeGuin, Gene Goldfish (1997)
Wolfe, and G.K. Chesterton. A self-  
described "feral child who was raised in  
libraries," Gaiman credits librarians with  
fostering a life-long love of reading: "I The Wolves in the Walls (2003)
wouldn't be who I am without libraries. I  
was the sort of kid who devoured books,  
and my happiest times as a boy were Greenaway-shortlisted Crazy
when I persuaded my parents to drop me Hair (2009)
off in the local library on their way to
work, and I spent the day there. I
discovered that librarians actually want
to help you: they taught me about
interlibrary loans."
