Doris Gates

    Doris Gatesová bola rodená Kalifornčanka a dlhé roky pracovala ako knihovníčka. Je však spomínaná predovšetkým pre svoje obľúbené detské knihy, z ktorých najznámejšia a najvplyvnejšia bola kniha Blue Willow. Táto kniha je považovaná za prvý realistický román pre deti, ktorý sa zaoberal problémami, a bola ocenená tak pre svoju trvalú literárnu hodnotu, ako aj pre rozšírenie tém, ktoré mohli byť v knihách pre deti preskúmané.
