Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was an American writer, poet, and critic. Best known for his macabre prose work, including the short story "The Tell-Tale Heart," his writing has influenced literature in the United States and around the world. L. Frank Baum (1856-1919) produced a rich array of fairy tales, fantasy, and whimsy, including fourteen full-length Oz books. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz however, remains the most popular and enduring of all. One of the best-known and most-read books in the world, it is still considered ""the quintessential American fairy tale. "" Michael McCurdy's richly evocative illustrations grace more than 160 books for children and adults alike, including American Tall Tales, The Man Who Planted Trees, Tarzan, The Sailor's Alphabet, and Trapped by the Ice: Shackleton's Amazing Antarctic Adventure. Ray Bradbury, one of America's most popular and widely respected writers, is the author of classics such as The Martian Chronicles, Fahrenheit 451, and The Illustrated Man.
