16.In the early 1900s,Carol Ryrie Brink lived with her grandmother Caddie on a tiny farm in Idaho.The farm was a great place to live.Besides wonderful tall climbing trees,it had cats and chickens and a horse,which she rode all over the countryside and through the streets of town.
Even so,Carol was sometimes lonely.She would climb to the top of her favorite tree and make up stories to cheer herself up.The favorite part of her day was when Grandmother Caddie would sit with her and tell stories about the adventures (冒險經(jīng)歷) she and her brothers had.
Carol loved the stories so much that when she grew up,she decided to write a book about them.Thousands of children throughout the world have read and loved Caddie Woodlawn.Carol's book won a special award (獎項) called the Newbery Medal.Each year only one children's book is chosen to win this award.
Carol said it was her son and daughter who inspired (激勵) her to write for children.That wasn't easy when she was busy taking care of a family.Sometimes an idea would come to her while she was washing the supper dishes.She would make a quick note and come back to write it out more fully after her children were asleep.
Carol wrote 27 books in her life,many of which are about her life in Idaho.Besides the Newbery Medal,she won many more awards.Later when another author Mary Reed wrote a book about Carol Ryrie Brink,she summed up (概括) Carol's life by saying,"She tried to live in a way that would not harm others,to never waste a day,and to make the most of her life."
