关于作者

Kate Douglas Smith Wiggin (1856–1923) was a revered American educator, author, and reformer of children’s education in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. An ardent advocate for kindergarten and early childhood education, her literary contributions extended beyond pedagogy into the realm of children’s fiction and adult novels. Perhaps her best-known work is the classic children’s story ‘Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm’ which continues to enchant readers with its depiction of youthful resilience and optimism. In her educational text ‘Froebel’s Gifts’ (1895), Wiggin delved into the educational philosophy of Friedrich Froebel, the founder of the kindergarten movement, illustrating how the use of simple educational materials could profoundly influence a child’s development. Her writing style often reflected her educational ideals, characterized by a belief in nurturing the hearts and minds of children through engaging storytelling. Wiggin’s commitment to pedagogical advancement led her to pen several influential works on the subject, including ‘The Story of Patsy’ and ‘Kindergarten Principles and Practice’, further shaping the discourse on early childhood education. In addition to her educational and literary contributions, Wiggin also co-founded the first free kindergarten on the West Coast of the United States. Her books, distinguished by their warmth, humor, and vivid characterizations, remain a testament to her legacy as an innovator in children’s literature and education.
