William Steig (–) published his first children’s book, Roland the Minstrel Pig, in , and received the Caldecott Medal for Sylvester and the Magic Pebble () in His works also include The Amazing Bone, a Caldecott Honor Book, and Abel’s Island and Doctor De Soto, both Newbery Honor Books. So begins William Steig's Newbery Honor Book Abel's Island, the ensuing adventures of this rather foppish mouse as he comes head to head with nature. Amazingly, Abel is swept up in a stream, then a river, then eventually marooned on an island (about 12, tails long). Trapped on a deserted island after a storm, he is forced by Providence to take a sabbatical, left to himself and a new life full of reflection. As this simple but moving book unfolds, the reader grows with Abel. His pondering while making a new life and sitting under the stars in one of the island trees, stirs the soul—gently.
