¡Mary Pope Osborne es una reconocida autora estadounidense, famosa principalmente por su popular serie de libros para niños, Magic Tree House! Nacida en Fort Sill, Oklahoma, Osborne se crió como una army brat, viviendo en diferentes partes del mundo, incluyendo Austria, Florida y Carolina del Norte. Este estilo de vida nómada encendió su amor por la exploración y la aventura, lo que más tarde canalizaría en su escritura.
El trabajo de Osborne es conocido por su accesibilidad y atractivo para los jóvenes lectores. Su serie Magic Tree House, que ha vendido más de 134 millones de copias en todo el mundo y ha sido traducida a 33 diferentes idiomas, es un testimonio de su maestría en la narración. La serie sigue las aventuras de los hermanos Jack y Annie mientras viajan a través del tiempo y el espacio, explorando nuevos lugares y aprendiendo sobre diferentes culturas. El éxito de la serie le ha ganado a Osborne numerosos premios y reconocimientos, asegurando su posición como una de las escritoras más exitosas en su campo.
Además de la serie Magic Tree House, Osborne ha escrito más de 100 libros para niños y jóvenes adultos, incluyendo novelas, recontados de mitología y folclore, libros ilustrados, biografías y misterios. También ha desempeñado el cargo de presidenta de la Authors Guild desde 1993 hasta 1997, abogando por los derechos de los autores publicados. Una entusiasta defensora de la alfabetización de los niños, Osborne ha viajado extensamente, visitando escuelas y hablando sobre temas relacionados con la alfabetización. Ha donado más de 350,000 libros a niños desfavorecidos en todo el país a través de su programa Gift of Books.
El trabajo de Osborne ha tenido un gran impacto en la literatura infantil, inspirando un amor por la lectura y la aventura en los jóvenes lectores de todo el mundo. Su dedicación a promover la alfabetización y su compromiso con la creación de historias atractivas y accesibles la convierten en una figura querida en el mundo de la literatura infantil.
