Le Grand Henderson
Le Grand Henderson (1901–1964), most often writing under the ''nom de plume'' "Le Grand", was a writer and illustrator of books for all ages.
Le Grand was born in 1901 in Torrington, Connecticut.〔http://special.lib.umn.edu/findaid/xml/CLRC-1173.xml〕 He attended the Yale School of Fine Arts for four years. After graduation he headed for New York City. He found work designing heating and ventilating equipment, switchboards for submarines, and window and interior displays for Macy's and Bloomingdale's.
He soon tired of living in the city. He then went to St. Paul, Minnesota, where he began a yearlong journey on a houseboat down the Mississippi River to the Gulf of Mexico. The ''Augustus'' series of books takes place along the Mississippi, based on this trip down the river.
Le Grand is best known for his folklore series (9 books, including ''Cap'n Dow and the Hole in the Doughnut''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cap'n Dow and the Hole in the Doughnut: Le Grand: Amazon.com: Books )〕 and ''Cats for Kansas'')〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cats for Kansas: Le Grand: Amazon.com: Books )〕 for children 4 - 8. The story of "Cap'n Dow and the Hole in the Doughnut" is said to be written while he personally served as one of the crew of a down-East schooner off the coast of Maine, where men are sailors and doughnuts are doughnuts.〔Childcraft, "The How and Why Library, Vol. 2 "Stories and Fables", 1964〕 He is also known for his ''Augustus'' series (12 books) depicting the country-wide adventures of a "Huck Finn"-type lad, for children 8 - 12.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Guide to the Le Grand Henderson papers 1932-1981 )〕 Overall he wrote over 30 books between 1937 and 1940.
He died in 1964.
