Phyllis McGinley Knihy
Phyllis McGinley bola oceňovaná autorka, ktorá majstrovsky zachytila podstatu predmestského života prostredníctvom svojej ľahkej poézie. Jej diela sa často zameriavali na každodenné radosti a výzvy rodinného života, pričom si zachovávali prenikavý postreh a hravý tón. McGinleyová rozšírila svoju literárnu pôsobnosť aj na eseje a detské knihy, čím preukázala svoju všestrannosť ako rozprávačka. Jej schopnosť premeniť obyčajné okamihy na niečo pozoruhodné jej zabezpečila miesto medzi významnými americkými básnikmi.
