At an early age, he received a trumpet as a gift from his father. He practiced obsessively and eventually joined a California dance band. After graduating from high school, he ventured to New York City to study art under the tutelage of Joan Sloan and Harry Wickey at the Art Students' League. He managed to support himself throughout his schooling by playing his trumpet evenings, in nightclubs and at weddings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGradually, he eased into making a living sketching impressions of Broadway shows for The New York Times and The Herald Tribune. This shift was helped along, in no small part, by a rather heartbreaking incident: he lost his trumpet. One evening, he was so engrossed in sketching people on the subway, he simply forgot it was sitting on the seat beside him. This new career turned out to be a near-perfect fit for Don, though, as he had always loved the theater. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHe was introduced to the world of children's literature when William Saroyan asked him to illustrate several books. Soon after, he began to write and illustrate his own books, a career he settled into comfortably and happily. Through his writing, he was able to create his own theater: I love the flow of turning the pages, the suspense of what's next. Ideas just come at me and after me. It's all so natural. I work all the time, long into the night, and it's such a pleasure. I don't know when the time ends. I've never been happier in my life! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDon died in 1978, after a long and successful career. He created many beloved characters in his lifetime, perhaps the most beloved among them a stuffed, overall-wearing bear named Corduroy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDon Freeman was the author and illustrator of many popular books for children, including Corduroy, A Pocket for Corduroy, and the Caldecott Honor Book Fly High, Fly Low.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Dial Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":39821944356979,"sku":"9780140501735","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_a4686405-8973-4381-a394-11afffb8447d.jpg?v=1644518052"},{"product_id":"my-side-of-the-mountain-9780141312422","title":"My Side of the Mountain","description":"Should appeal to all rugged individualists who dream of escape to the forest.\u003cb\u003e--\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Sam Gribley is terribly unhappy living in New York City with his family, so he runs away to the Catskill Mountains to live in the woods--all by himself.

That is the question that Robert Macfarlane poses to himself as he embarks on a series of breathtaking journeys through some of the archipelago's most remarkable landscapes. He climbs, walks, and swims by day and spends his nights sleeping on cliff-tops and in ancient meadows and wildwoods. With elegance and passion he entwines history, memory, and landscape in a bewitching evocation of wildness and its vital importance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert MacFarlane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.48h x 5.54w x 0.74d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780143113935\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Macfarlane \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of a prizewinning quartet of books about landscape and the human heart: \u003ci\u003eMountains of the Mind\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Wild Places\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Old Ways, \u003c\/i\u003e and\u003ci\u003e Landmarks.\u003c\/i\u003e He has contributed to \u003ci\u003eHarper's\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eGranta\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe New Yorker\u003c\/i\u003e, the \u003ci\u003eObserver \u003c\/i\u003e(London), the \u003ci\u003eTimes Literary Supplement \u003c\/i\u003e(London), and the \u003ci\u003eLondon Review of Books\u003c\/i\u003e.
