I'm very fond of Michael Morpurgo. He writes books that are gentle yet powerful, tolerant yet opinionated, full of kindness yet fully aware that world is often very much less than kind. I think he takes good care of his young readers. Singing for Mrs Pettigrew is a collection of his short stories, many of which form the basis of later novels, interspersed with essays and articles about how and why he writes and what inspires him. It's a very generous book.
