Aidan Chambers

"Because Aidan Chambers has produced such a large number of diverse works, both critical and creative, because his works have been widely acclaimed by reviewers and award committees alike, and because he has become an integral part of the young adult cannon, it is all too appropriate that Betty Greenway's examination of Aidan Chambers is the twenty-fifth addition to the Scarecrow Studies in Young Adult Literature series. This full-length study integrates the biography, creative writing, and criticism of one of the most important figures in YA literature and incorporates these strands into a complete picture that will enhance the understanding of readers."--BOOK JACKET.
