There               is               a               man               who               could               be               seen               as               a               genius               in               the               children's               literature               world.

He               has               illustrated               over               200               children's               books.

This               fascinating               author               also               wrote               One-hundred               of               those               books.

His               books               cover               themes               ranging               from               his               own               life,               the               holidays,               folktales,               Bible               stories,               Mother               Goose               rhymes,               and               a               number               of               informational               books.

Because               of               the               fact               that               he               receives               nearly               100,000               fan               letters               each               year,               many               believe               this               man               to               be               one               of               the               most               popular               children's               book               creators.

The               fact               that               this               man               is               so               renowned               and               still               cranking               out               new               children's               books               each               year               has               focused               my               attention               on               him               for               an               author               study.

I               am               interested               in               learning               more               about               a               man               who               has               touched               so               many               children's               lives               in               such               a               creative               way.

That               man               is               the               brilliant               Tomie               dePaola.

Tomie               dePaola               (his               given               name               is               Thomas               Anthony               dePaola)               was               born               September               15,               1934,               in               Meriden,               Connecticut               from               a               loving               family               of               Irish               and               Italian               background.

He               was               born               to               Joseph               and               Florence               dePaola,               two               parents               that               were               extremely               supportive               of               their               son's               dreams               and               ambitions.

dePaola               also               has               an               older               brother               named               Joseph,               and               two               younger               sisters               named               Judie               and               Maureen.

He               grew               up               in               a               very               happy               home.

dePaola               remembers               listening               to               his               mother               read               to               him               and               his               siblings,               and               it               was               her               readings               that               instilled               in               Tomie               a               love               of               books.

There               was               an               emphasis               in               dePaola's               home               on               enjoying               school,               family               and               friends.

This               family               expected               its               members               to               embrace               personal               talents               and               interests.

At               the               age               of               four,               dePaola's               talents               and               interests               included               illustrating               and               writing               (along               with               singing               and               dancing).

dePaola's               family               was               extremely               supportive               by               getting               the               future               artist/writer               all               the               art               supplies               that               he               needed               (and               an               immediate               enrollment               in               dancing               classes).

His               family               was               a               strong               influence               on               dePaola's               success               as               a               writer               and               illustrator.

The               first               book               that               Mr.

Tomie               dePaola               wrote               was               Glimmera,               The               Story               of               a               Mermaid               for               his               little               sister's               birthday               when               he               was               only               ten               years               old.

That               is               truly               an               early               start.
               Tomie               dePaola's               drive               to               succeed               as               a               writer               and               illustrator               transferred               into               his               school               years.

In               school,               this               author               took               art               classes               and               created               art               for               posters,               exhibitions,               and               theatre               productions               among               other               things.

Following               high               school,               dePaola               entered               Pratt               Institute               in               Brooklyn,               New               York,               where               he               spent               years               learning               how               to               draw               anything               and               everything.

After               graduating               from               Pratt               Institute,               dePaola               spent               a               brief               time               in               a               Benedictine               Monastery               in               Vermont.

This               monastery               was               a               very               small               place               with               a               very               good               library.

The               monastery               gave               dePaola               a               way               to               view               life.

He               then               went               on               to               attend               graduate               school               at               the               California               College               of               Arts               and               Crafts.

He               taught               art               and               theatre               at               New               England               College               in               Henniker,               New               Hampshire               from               1962               to               1978               before               he               devoted               himself               fully               to               children's               literature.

His               first               children's               book               job               was               that               of               illustrating               a               science               book               entitled               Sound               by               Lisa               Miller.

The               first               published               book               that               dePaola               himself               wrote               and               illustrated               was               that               of               The               Wonderful               Dragon               of               Timlin.

That               was               about               forty               years               ago.

There               would               be               hundreds               more               to               come.

Since               the               year               of               1965,               Mr.

Tomie               dePaola               has               published               at               least               one               book               a               year.

Generally,               it               was               more               like               four               to               six               books               annually.

Tomie               dePaola               has               been               a               very               busy               man,               and               many               children               and               adults               (myself               included)               have               taken               pleasure               in               his               work.
               I               read               several               books               and               explored               many               websites               during               my               research               for               this               author               study,               which               told               of               how               the               literary               community               has               recognized               and               honored               Tomie               dePaola's               work               numerous               times.

In               1976,               dePaola               received               The               Caldecott               Honor               Award               for               Strega               Nona.

He               has               also               received               the               Newbery               Honor               Award,               The               New               Hampshire               Governor's               Arts               Award               for               Living               Treasure,               The               Kerlan               Award               from               the               University               of               Minnesota,               and               The               University               of               South               Mississippi               Medallion.

The               Society               of               Children's               Book               Writers               and               Illustrators               have               also               awarded               this               author               for               his               works.

The               Catholic               Library               Association               and               Smithsonian               Institution               have               recognized               Tomie               dePaola               with               awards               as               well.

In               1990,               Tomie               dePaola               was               the               United               States               nominee               for               the               Hans               Christian               Anderson               Medal               for               Illustration,               and               a               number               of               American               colleges               have               presented               Mr.

dePaola               with               honorary               degrees.

Children               and               adults               will               continue               to               recognize               and               appreciate               this               author/illustrator's               work.
               Today               Tomie               dePaola               lives               in               New               London,               New               Hampshire.

He               is               not               married               nor               does               he               have               any               children.

He               lives               with               his               two               Welsh               Terriers,               Moffat               and               Markus.

He               had               two               other               dogs,               Morgan               and               Madison,               but               they               have               unfortunately               died.

Something               I               found               really               interesting               was               that               dePaola's               studio               is               attached               to               a               renovated               200-year-old               barn.

I               can               just               imagine               this               author               sitting               in               his               unique               studio               working               furiously               on               his               new               children's               book               idea.

Tomie               dePaola               will               continue               to               write               children's               book               for               his               beloved               fans.
               I               have               read               a               number               of               books               written               and               illustrated               by               this               incredible               author.

They               are               as               follows:               
               
               Nana               Upstairs               &               Nana               Downstairs               (1973)               (re-released               version):               This               book               is               about               a               young               boy               named               Tommy,               and               his               two               Nanas.

His               first               Nana               is               Nana               Downstairs,               and               she               is               Tommy's               grandmother.

She               is               constantly               downstairs               in               the               kitchen               doing               something.

His               second               Nana               is               Nana               Upstairs,               and               she               is               Tommy's               great               grandmother,               who               is               94               years               old               and               too               weak               to               go               downstairs               much.

Tommy               would               visit               his               two               Nanas               on               Sundays               and               have               a               really               good               time.

One               day               Nana               Upstairs               dies,               and               Tommy               is               very               upset               about               this.

That               night               Tommy               sees               a               falling               star,               and               Tommy's               mother               says               that               it               is               his               Nana               Upstairs               giving               him               a               kiss.

Years               later,               when               Nana               Downstairs               dies,               Tommy               sees               another               shooting               star               and               says               that               his               two               Nanas               are               now               both               Nana               Upstairs.

This               is               Tomie               dePaola's               favorite               self-written               book.

It               is               a               true               story.

Nana               Upstairs'               name               was               Honorah               O'Rourke               Mock,               and               Nana               Downstairs'               name               was               Alice               Mock               Downey.

The               book               has               a               very               nostalgic               feeling               associated               with               it,               and               dePaola               has               used               very               soft               colors               in               illustrating               it.


               
               The               Cloud               Book               (1975):               This               book               discusses               the               different               types               of               clouds               one               sees               in               the               skies.

dePaola               describes               the               three               major               types               (cumulus,               stratus               and               cirrus)               along               with               other               common               cloud               types.

This               author               also               examined               myths               associated               with               cloud               shapes               (example:               Greeks               believed               Hermes               once               stole               the               sun's               cattle,               which               were               the               clouds).

Different               sayings               associated               with               clouds,               and               also               information               about               how               clouds               can               tell               us               about               our               weather,               are               present               in               this               book.

A               silly               story               about               clouds               ends               the               book.

I               think               that               the               silly               story               might               have               been               the               best               part               of               it.


               
               Strega               Nona,               Her               Story               (1996):               This               book               tells               the               story               of               one               of               Tomie               dePaola's               recurring               characters.

Nona               was               born               and               her               Grandma               Concetta               believed               her               to               be               a               strega               (witch)               from               the               beginning.

As               she               grew               up,               Nona               made               friends               with               another               strega               named               Amelia.

Amelia               learned               the               new               ways               of               magic,               but               Nona               kept               to               her               grandmother's               old               ways.

After               many               years               of               studying               with               Grandma               Concetta,               Nona               takes               her               place               as               the               great               strega.

Strega               Nona               learns               that               her               grandmother's               secret               ingredient               was               love.

The               book               ends               with               Strega               Nona               inviting               a               young               man               into               her               home               so               that               he               may               help               her,               and               also               so               that               Nona               could               teach               him               the               ways               of               her               old               magic.


               
               The               Legend               of               the               Indian               Paintbrush               (1996):               An               Indian               child               named               Little               Gopher               was               much               different               from               the               other               boys               in               his               tribe.

The               gods               spoke               and               said               that               he               was               to               use               his               artistic               abilities               to               paint               the               glories               of               his               tribe               rather               than               become               a               fighting               warrior.

After               he               served               his               people               by               painting               these               pictures,               the               great               spirits               awarded               Little               Gopher               with               the               ability               to               paint               the               colors               of               the               sky               on               his               white               buckskin.

The               paints               and               brushes               left               behind               root               themselves               into               the               ground               and               bloom               into               the               flowers               we               now               call               the               Indian               Paintbrush               at               the               very               end               of               this               story.

This               book               is               only               one               of               dePaola's               numerous               folktales.
               Bill               and               Pete               to               the               Rescue               (1998):               Tomie               dePaola               has               written               about               the               characters               Bill               and               Pete               in               two               other               books.

Bill               is               a               crocodile               and               Pete               is               his               toothbrush               (a               bird).

In               this               book,               Bill               and               Pete               are               on               a               mission               to               save               Bill's               cousin               from               the               same               man               who               killed               Bill's               father.

They               travel               all               the               way               from               the               Nile               River               to               New               Orleans,               Louisiana,               where               they               befriend               numerous               alligators               and               find               both               Bill's               cousin               and               father               alive               and               well.

Being               that               this               book               is               set               in               a               familiar               setting               (I               live               in               Louisiana),               it               was               obvious               that               dePaola               did               do               some               research               on               the               New               Orleans               area               before               writing               or               illustrating               this               book.


               
               Jamie               O'Rourke               and               the               Pooka               (2000):               Jamie               O'Rourke               also               appears               in               several               of               Tomie               dePaola's               books.

This               character               is               a               very               lazy,               Irish               man.

His               wife               has               left               him               alone               for               a               week,               and               he               is               in               charge               of               cleaning               the               dishes               and               sweeping               the               house.

He               is               a               very               indolent               man               however.

He               and               his               cronies               make               a               huge               mess,               and               a               pooka               comes               in               during               the               night               to               clean               up               after               them.

The               pooka               was               once               a               very               lazy               man               who               was               punished               for               his               lazy               ways               when               it               came               time               for               him               to               go               to               the               other               world.

After               Jamie               O'Rourke               rewards               the               pooka               for               his               kindness,               the               pooka               leaves               before               cleaning               up               Jamie's               huge               mess.

Eileen,               Jamie's               wife,               is               then               left               with               the               mess               to               clean               up.

She               is               not               very               happy,               and               Jamie               still               did               not               learn               any               lesson               from               his               experience               with               the               pooka               creature.


               
               Meet               the               Barkers,               Morgan               and               Moffat               Go               to               School               (2001):               Morgie               and               Moffie               make               their               debut               in               this               book.

Morgan               and               Moffat               are               twins               who               are               going               to               school               for               the               first               time.

Moffat               is               a               know-it-all               who               always               wants               to               be               right,               and               gets               many               gold               stars               from               the               teacher.

Morgan               is               very               nice               and               makes               many               new               friends               at               school.

By               the               end               of               the               week,               the               twins               have               helped               each               other               understand               how               to               make               new               friends               and               be               good               students               (Moffat               stops               being               so               stubborn               and               makes               a               friend;               Morgan               knows               something               about               dinosaurs,               and               he               is               able               to               answer               the               teacher's               questions).

The               Barkers               are               a               real               part               of               Tomie               dePaola's               life.

He               owned               four               welsh               terriers               at               the               time               of               this               books'               publication               (Morgan,               Moffat,               Madison,               and               Markus).

His               dogs               are               never               too               far               from               Tomie               dePaola               when               he               is               working               at               his               drawing               board.

They               were               his               source               of               inspiration               for               this               series               of               books.
               Tomie               dePaola               has               a               certain               characteristic               style               associated               with               his               writings               and               illustrations.

His               writings               balance               fact,               fantasy               and               humor               to               create               interesting               characters               and               storylines.

The               intent               of               dePaola's               books               is               to               be               both               laughable               and               safe               for               children.

Many               times,               it               appears               that               this               author               falls               for               certain               characters               and               decides               to               keep               them               alive               in               more               and               more               books.

Strega               Nona,               Bill               and               Pete,               and               Jamie               O'Rourke               are               some               examples               of               characters               that               Tomie               dePaola               has               continually               written               in               to               his               books.

dePaola               also               makes               sure               to               research               topics               before               he               writes               anything               down,               so               as               not               to               confuse               children.

Many               of               his               books               are               set               somewhere               other               than               the               United               States,               or               they               are               set               in               a               place               that               has               a               culturally               relevant               environment.

Those               books               that               are               set               in               such               places               (New               Orleans,               Ireland,               Italy)               demonstrate               how               dePaola               researches               and               correctly               represents               the               settings               in               his               writings               and               illustrations.

Many               describe               dePaola's               illustrations               as               being               very               light-hearted,               many               of               which               are               in               a               folk               art               style.

Upon               examining               many               of               this               author's               works,               I               noted               that               dePaola               has               a               particular               way               with               color,               line,               detail               and               design               in               regards               to               his               illustrations.

Simple               and               direct               is               the               best               description               for               his               art.

dePaola's               color               is               also               very               distinctive,               and               his               favorite               medium               to               work               with               is               a               combination               of               tempera,               watercolor               and               acrylic               paints.

For               the               most               part,               the               drawings               in               his               books               contain               very               bold               outlines               filled               with               light-colored               watercolors.

dePaola               tends               to               use               many               curves               in               his               pictures,               and               he               also               makes               use               of               a               number               of               symbols               in               his               books.

A               white               bird,               human               hands,               and               boldly               outlined               hearts               are               some               of               the               symbols               this               author               likes               to               use.

The               white               bird               Tomie               dePaola               uses               in               his               book               has               an               unknown               meaning,               but               the               hearts               are               a               symbol               of               love,               and               the               human               hands               are               a               means               of               providing               expression,               directing               the               eye               or               balancing               an               image.

The               author               again               looks               at               numerous               pictures               before               drawing               anything               so               as               not               to               confuse               children               with               inaccurate               interpretations               of               specific               settings.

Overall,               simple               and               direct               illustrations               accompanied               by               funny,               yet               sometimes               informative               text               characterize               dePaola's               books.

A               major               aspect               of               dePaola's               writings               lies               in               the               fact               that               they               are               quite               versatile               in               terms               of               genre,               being               that               he               retells               stories               from               folklore,               writes               nonfiction               books,               and               even               some               poetry.

I               think               that               the               key               to               much               of               dePaola's               success               is               in               the               fact               that               he               writes               from               his               life.

Tomie               dePaola               is               truly               a               genius               in               the               literary               world.
