"Some juvenile fantasy series:

J. K. Rowling: Harry Potter Susan Cooper: The Dark Is Rising Philip Pullman: His Dark Materials C. S. Lewis: The Chronicles of Narnia"

While there is nothing wrong with any of the authors listed, I notice that they are all "British Authors".

Lloyd Alexander, Madeleine L'Engle, and Antoine de Saint-Exupéry would also make fine examples of "Juvenile fantasy authors", there are probably many others.

Should the list be just a representative sample, or should it be more exaustive?

Yes--I've made quite a few additions, including late 19th and early 20th century examples and more North Americans, also done a very rough chronological sort. Does it work?--Budzamom 20:32, 10 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Also, Redwall seems to me plainly fantasy, while other books with anthropomorphized animal protagonists are less clearly fantasy to me (The Wind in the Willows). Thoughts? --Budzamom 20:35, 10 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
