作者簡介

莎朗.克里奇 (Sharon Creech)

  生長於美國,1979年移居英國雪莉市(Surrey)郊區。她的夫婿是當地一所美國學校的校長,而她的二名子女則住在美國。莎朗曾於俄亥俄州HIRAM大學修讀英國文學及研習寫作,並在維吉尼亞州Mason大學獲得碩士學位。

  莎朗的第一本兒童著作《Absolutely Normal Chaos》(完全正常的混亂)是根據她那「紛擾又哄鬧」的家庭成長經驗而寫成。而第二部作品《印地安人的麂皮靴》榮獲紐伯瑞獎(Newbery Medal)金牌獎、United Kingdom Reading Association(英國讀書協會獎)、Children’s Book Award(童書精選獎)長篇小說類得獎者、Smarties Book Prize(優良圖書獎)入圍最有希望候選人名單及W H Smith Mind Boggling Books Award(史密斯精選圖書獎)。

  承接《印地安人的麂皮靴》佳績,莎朗出版了另一本少年小說《少女蘇菲的航海故事》(The Wanderer)亦獲得2001年「紐伯瑞獎銀牌獎」(A Newbery Honor Book)等多項大獎肯定。

  儘管莎朗已旅居英國長達20年,但想念家鄉之情則是無庸置疑的,因此在她所有作品中都是以美國為故事背景。也正因為她距離家鄉是那麼的遙遠,她可以用更客觀的視野穿越大西洋看透人生。在她的作品中,總是充滿往昔記憶的色彩,平添淡淡鄉愁。

  Sharon Creech is the author of the Newbery Medal winner Walk Two Moons and the Newbery Honor Book The Wanderer. Her other work includes the novels Hate That Cat, The Castle Corona, Replay, Heartbeat, Granny Torrelli Makes Soup, Ruby Holler, Love That Dog, Bloomability, Absolutely Normal Chaos, Chasing Redbird, and Pleasing the Ghost, as well as three picture books: A Fine, Fine School; Fishing in the Air; and Who's That Baby? Ms. Creech and her husband live in upstate New York.
