Earlier this month, the United States Library of Congress named Katherine Paterson the national ambassador for young people's literature. She is only the second person to hold the position. She replaces writer Jon Scieszka, who had served since 2008.
The librarian of Congress, James Billington, said Ms Paterson “represents the finest in literature for young people”. He spoke of the importance of reading in the lives of American young people. Ms Paterson has written more than thirty books. She is among only five writers to have won two Newbery Medals. These are among the most important children's book awards in the United States.
Bridge to Terabithia won a Newbery Medal in 1977. Her book Jacob Have I Loved won the award in 1981.
Katherine Paterson's books for children are often quite complex. Bridge to Terabithia includes adult themes like depression and death. The book has caused debate because of its place on school library bookshelves. Some parents think it is too adult for young children. Ms Paterson says the idea for the book came from a real life experience. Her son's best friend died in 1974 when she was struck by lightning.
