Autorenporträt
Mary Hazelton Blanchard Wade (1860-1936) was an American writer of considerable import during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, particularly noted for her expansive series of children's books covering a myriad of cultures around the globe. Born in Charlestown, Massachusetts, Wade began her literary journey at a tender age, contributing to the field of education before dedicating herself to writing full time. Her bibliography is extensive, but she is perhaps best known for her 'Little Cousin' series, which includes the notable book 'Mari, Our Little Norwegian Cousin' (1902). This series was instrumental in introducing young American audiences to the customs, lifestyles, and cultures of children from different parts of the world, fostering a sense of global awareness and empathy through charming narratives and vivid characterizations. Wade's writing style is marked by a gentle didacticism, weaving together educational content with engaging storytelling that appeals to the natural curiosity of children. Despite the passage of time, her work remains a testament to the power of children's literature in bridging cultural divides and expanding worldviews. Today, Mary H. Blanchard Wade is remembered not only for her literary contributions but also for her role in broadening the horizons of countless young readers through her heartfelt and illuminating tales.
