King-Smith, Dick (Ronald Gordon)

    0.09 sec.

King-Smith, Dick (Ronald Gordon) (1922- )

English author of over 90 books for children. Having been a farmer for over twenty years, and then a teacher, it seems natural that his books should focus largely on animals. His book The Sheep-Pig (1983), published as Babe the Gallant Pig in the USA, was the winner of the 1984 Guardian Award for children's fiction. In 1995 the book was made into the film Babe, and was nominated for an Academy Award.
