Eduard Petiška (14 May 1924 – 6 June 1987) was a Czech poet, translator, playwright and novelist, the author of many books for children and young people, and a translator and theorist of children's literature. He wrote over ninety books, which were translated to dozens of languages. == Family ==
Petiška was born in Prague on 14 May 1924 into a family with a rich cultural heritage. His father, František Petiška, was a passionate reader. From early childhood he spoke two languages – Czech and German – and this later enabled him to work as a translator during the years in which he was prohibited from publishing. He shared his love of books with his classmate Jaroslav Hašek, who sat next to him. Hašek later used Petiška's name in his own writings. He worked at an insurance company with Franz Kafka, and was among the first audience for Kafka's writings. The poet's mother, born Adeline Windant, gave up her career of an opera singer. She tried writing both prose and poetry. Petiška's artistic talent probably came from his mother's side. Her father (the grandfather of Eduard) came from an old Dutch-German family of painters; some of them decorated several churches in north Bohemia with frescoes. He himself was also a painter. The family was also gifted in music – both Adeline and Eduard had absolute pitch. Petiška had already been accepted to a music conservatory (to become an actor or opera singer) when war changed his life. Due to the Nazi occupation he was forced to work as a lathe hand in Volmanov's factory in Čelákovice instead of taking up his studies.
