		A long-time resident of Maine, her literary works have frequently focused on the culture, history and society of her adopted state; her books Miss Rumphius, Island Boy, Captain Pottle's House, and King of Wreck Island are all set there.
		The apparent simplicity of her art recreated the peaceful rhythms of nineteenth-century rural New England, and this style is one she made her signature style, returning to it again and again.
		Each of her books was laboriously and extensively researched -- from the magpie on the pollarded willow representing an evil omen in Medieval times (Chanticleer and the Fox) -- to the extreme detail of the baptismal gown which was actually worn by Eleanor Roosevelt at her baptism in Eleanor.
