  • Chris Van Allsburg
    Chris Van Allsburg TeachingBooks.net Original In-depth Author Interview Chris Van Allsburg interviewed April 27, 2011 in his home in Providence, Rhode Island. TEACHINGBOOKS: You grew up near Grand Rapids, Michigan. What was your childhood like? CHRIS VAN ALLSBURG: I guess I had a conventional 1950s childhood in a place that was neither exurban nor suburban. It was sort of in between at that point. The little bungalows and ranch houses were all quite new. I remember sometimes poking around half-built houses in the neighborhood with my friends. I was left pretty much to my own devices. I was able to walk to school, and after school Iʼd get together with one or two friends, and weʼd jump on our bikes and just cruise around the neighborhood. Weʼd go to these ponds and scoop up minnows and put them in jars and bike through fields. I can remember making little bag lunches and feeling so adventurous. Weʼd make a peanut butter sandwich and pour some milk in a mason jar, which always tasted terrible by the middle of the warm day. But it was the idea of going off on your own and then taking a chow break. It was a satisfying childhood. TEACHINGBOOKS: What were your interests as a child? CHRIS VAN ALLSBURG: I may have drawn a little bit more or looked forward to art days a little more than the average student, but I think my real interest or talent was model building. I was actually quite gifted at it; being very particular about the construction and trying to make each model a really finely crafted thing.

  • Press Release for Probuditi! Published by Houghton Mifflin Company
    Press Release Probuditi! by Chris Van Allsburg • About the Book • About the Author • A Conversation with Chris Van Allsburg Enter another hypnotizing world from Chris Van Allsburg, a two-time Caldecott medalist and the creator of The Polar Express. About the Book With his uncanny ability to combine stunning perspectives and lush illustrations with imaginative storytelling, Chris Van Allsburg amazes audiences of all ages with his books. With Probuditi!, he has done it once again. For his birthday, Calvin's mother gives him two tickets to see Lomax the Magnificent, magician and hypnotist extraordinaire, along with the very strong hint that he should bring little sister Trudy. But it is Calvin's birthday, so he invites his friend Rodney instead. They are amazed by what they see, and when Mom later goes out, leaving Calvin in charge of Trudy, the boys decide to finally include her in the fun — by making her the first subject of their homemade hypnotizing machine. To their surprise, the machine works! But their elation turns to dismay when they can't remember the magic word to undo the spell and Trudy is stuck in her doggy trance, panting, drooling, and barking at squirrels, and Mom is already on her way home. The boys decide to take Trudy to the one man they know can solve their problem. This tale of sibling rivalry has a surprise ending that will satisfy younger sisters and brothers of all ages. With stories that lend themselves to both the printed page (more than nine million books sold worldwide) and the big screen (blockbuster movies have been made of The Polar Express, Zathura, and Jumanji, and a film adaptation of The Widow's Broom is in development), Chris Van Allsburg is our foremost source of family entertainment.
