Beschreibung:
Richard Atwater (1892-1948) lebte in Chicago. Er arbeitete als Journalist für verschiedene Zeitungen und unterrichtete Griechisch an der Universität. Ein Film über die Südpol-Expedition Richard E. Byrds inspirierte ihn 1932 zu Mr. Poppers Pinguine. Da Richard Atwater 1934 einen Schlaganfall erlitt und nicht mehr schreiben konnte, vollendete seine Frau Florence Atwater (1899-1979) das Buch.
The classic Newbery Honor book that inspired the hilarious Jim Carrey movie--and a childhood favorite book for generations.
Mr. Popper's Penguins is one of the handful of American books for children that has attained the status of a classic. A humble house painter is sent a male penguin by the great Admiral Drake and, thanks to the arrival of a female penguin, soon has twelve penguins living in his house. First published in 1938, Mr. Popper's Penguins has amused and enchanted generations of children and their parents.
