Beverly Cleary

The majority of Cleary's books are set in the Grant Park neighborhood of northeast Portland, Oregon, where she was raised, and she has been credited as one of the first authors of children's literature to figure emotional realism in the narratives of her characters, often children in middle-class families. Her first children's book was ''Henry Huggins'', which she wrote after receiving a question from a child when Cleary was a librarian. Cleary won the 1981 National Book Award for ''Ramona and Her Mother'' and the 1984 Newbery Medal for ''Dear Mr. Henshaw''. For her lifetime contributions to American literature, she received the National Medal of Arts, recognition as a Library of Congress Living Legend, and the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal from the Association for Library Service to Children. The Beverly Cleary School, a public school in Portland, was named after her, and several statues of her most famous characters were erected in Grant Park in 1995. Cleary died on March 25, 2021, at the age of 104. Provided by Wikipedia
