Reading Rockets: Author Interviews: Rosalyn Schanzer

Children's author and illustrator Rosalyn Schanzer views history as series of grand adventures full of fascinating people - stories just waiting to be told. And she loves to tell them, bringing real-life characters like George Washington (and that other George, King George III), Benjamin Franklin, Charles Darwin, Lewis & Clark, Davy Crockett, and others to life through vivid storytelling and rich-in-detail illustrations. Watch the interview to learn more about her and read a short biography about her life. Includes an interview transcript and a selected list of her books.
