Eleanor Cameron
Eleanor Cameron (1912-1996) was an innovative and genre-defying author of children's fiction and children's literature criticism. From her beginnings as a librarian, Cameron went on to become a prominent and respected voice in children's literature, writing one of the most beloved children's science fiction novels of all time, The Wonderful Flight to the Mushroom Planet, and later winning the National Book Award for her time fantasy The Court of the Stone Children.

The Court of the Stone Children

Jewels from the Moon and the Meteor That Couldn't Stay
In the mid-1960s, author Eleanor Cameron was asked to write a pair of short stories to be used as part of a reading program for schools.

But, now with restored illustrations and all of the "teaching" materials included, you have the opportunity to hold in your hand this rare book.NOTE: I have not been able to find who, if anyone, owns the rights to this gem. If you are and can prove you hold those rights, please contact me via Amazon. My intent has not been to make money from this booklet but to get it back out in circulation so everyone can enjoy it as much as we all have enjoyed Eleanor's Mushroom Planet stories!
