Uri Orlev: International Storyteller.
Freeman, Evelyn B.
Journal of Children's Literature, v25 n1 p44-47 Spr 1999
Presents Hans Christian Andersen award-winner Uri Orlev discussing his life, work, and reflections on writing books for children. Discusses how because Orlev grew up during the Holocaust, many of his books reflect his experiences; these books were often shared by psychologists with children who had lost a parent during the war. Discusses translation of his books into other languages. (SC)
