Garth Williams Bücher
Garth Williams wird ewig als der Illustrator in Erinnerung bleiben, der fiktiven Charakteren eine unvergessliche Form gab. Seine künstlerische Hand erweckte die vornehme kleine Maus Stuart Little, die gutherzige Spinne Charlotte, ihren Freund Wilbur und unzählige andere Tiere, Fabelwesen und Kinder zum Leben. Obwohl Williams auch selbst mehrere Kinderbücher verfasste, sind es vor allem sein einzigartiger Illustrationsstil und seine Fähigkeit, Charakteren ausgeprägte Persönlichkeiten zu verleihen, die sein Erbe begründeten. Seine Arbeit zeigte auch die Kraft der Kunst, sich mit gesellschaftlichen Diskursen auseinanderzusetzen.
