Cynthia Rylant has been a favorite of mine since I was in college.  I discovered her during a Children’s Literature course.  She writes the Henry and Mudge series as well as the Poppleton series but my all-time favorite book of hers is When the Relatives Came.

                       While Eve Bunting has published several light-hearted picture books, Bunting has never shied away from addressing the difficult issues.  She has published numerous picture books that include sensitive topics such as racial prejudice, death, troubled families, and war.   Bunting's message is clear, "Picture books aren't just for tots anymore."  She says, "I like to write books for children that make them think.  I like to write for every child, for every age, for every interest. That is why I have such a variety of books -- from pre-school, through the middle grades and beyond.  "One of my greatest joys is writing picture books. I have discovered the pleasures of telling a story of happiness or sorrow in a few simple words."
