Wanda Gág

Wanda Hazel Gág (1893–1946) was an American artist, author, translator, and illustrator. She is most noted for writing and illustrating the children’s book ''Millions of Cats'' which won a Newbery Honor Award and the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award. It is the oldest American picture book still in print. ''The ABC Bunny'' also received a Newbery Honor Award. Her books ''Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs'' and ''Nothing at All'' each won a Caldecott Honor Award.
In 1940 a book of edited excerpts from her diaries (covering the years 1908 to 1917) was published as ''Growing Pains''; it received wide acclaim.〔Wanda Gág, ''Growing Pains''. Borealis/Minnesota Historical Society Press, Saint Paul, p. xviii〕〔Frances Smith. (Testament of Faith ), a review of Gág's ''Growing Pains''. ''The Saturday Review'', October 5, 1940, p. 12〕
==Early life==

Born March 11, 1893 in New Ulm, Minnesota,〔(Wanda Gág bio ), Minnesota Historical Society. Accessed Apr. 26, 2011.〕 her mother was Elisabeth Biebl Gag and her father was Anton Gag, an artist and photographer. She was the eldest of seven children most of whom drew, sang, wrote stories and poems.〔Audur H. Winnan, ''Wanda Gág'', Smithsonian Institution Press, 1993, p. 2〕 When still a young teen Gág’s illustrated story ''Robby Bobby in Mother Goose Land'' was published in ''The Minneapolis Journal'' in their ''Junior Journal'' supplement.〔Richard W. Cox, Minnesota History, Fall 1974, p. 250〕 Gág was fifteen when her father died of tuberculosis; his final words to her were: “Was der Papa nicht thun konnt’, muss die Wanda halt fertig machen.” (What Papa couldn’t do, Wanda will have to finish.)〔Gág, p. xxxi〕 Following her father’s death, the Gag family was on welfare, and many people suggested that Wanda get a steady job. In spite of these events, she remained in school, graduating in June 1912. Wanda then taught country school in Springfield, Minnesota from November 1912 to June 1913.〔Winnan, p. 89〕
