Authors and Illustrators for Student Papers
I am currently putting together a list of fairy tale / fantasy authors and illustrators for ninth grade students to research for a brief research paper. I teach a unit on fairy tales and I want the focus to be on fairy tale and fantasy, so I have tried to leave off authors whose primary focus was in another genre (I know, everything is connected). I need a little help with the list. Have I left off any necessary individuals that would cause universal chaos if they were not included?

Thanks for all your help.

Well, I would definitely have Neil Gaiman in the list. And where's Terri Windling? She should be there as well!

A few sites...
Here are a few sites that list and link to other authors, illustrators, books, etc that may be helpful:

Another that came to mind, Natalie Babbit. I'm sure there are many others. I'll think of more and post again after work...
