The New York Times Remembers E.L. Konigsburg
The Times provides an interesting and extremely warm remembrance of the late E.L. Konigsburg.
Excerpt
Mrs. Konigsburg, who spent a year teaching high school science, was an unabashed information-pusher. Children's books, she once said, are "the key to the accumulated wisdom, wit, gossip, truth, myth, history, philosophy, and recipes for salting potatoes during the past 6,000 years of civilization."
