Rev. W. Awdry

    Dieser Autor, bekannt als Rev. W. Awdry, war ein englischer Geistlicher und Eisenbahnliebhaber, der die Charaktere aus einer beliebten Kinderbuchreihe über Eisenbahnen schuf. Die Charaktere, die ihn berühmt machen sollten, und die ersten Geschichten mit ihnen wurden 1943 erfunden, um seinen Sohn während einer Krankheit zu unterhalten. Seine Schriften konzentrieren sich auf fantasievolle und fesselnde Geschichten mit ausgeprägten Charakteren, die junge Leser ansprechen. Sein Erzählstil ist einfach, aber fesselnd und hat einen bleibenden Eindruck in der Kinderliteratur hinterlassen.
