  <about><![CDATA[Generations of children picture their favorite fictional characters as drawn by Garth Williams. Thus the unforgettable dapper mouse, Stuart Little, or the kindhearted spider, Charlotte and her pig friend, Wilbur. And many other animals (bears, dogs, kittens, crickets) fantastic creatures (elves, fairies) and children and grown-ups in books by Laura Ingalls Wilder, George Selden, Charlotte Zolotow, Else H. Minarik and many others. Garth Williams was also the writer of seven children's books, like &lt;i&gt;Baby Farm Animals&lt;/i&gt;, but it is primarily as an illustrator that he will always be remembered. His most controversial book was &lt;i&gt;Rabbit's Wedding&lt;/i&gt;, written and illustrated by him in 1958, for it stirred racial issues.]]></about>    <gender>male</gender>    <born_at>04/16/1912</born_at>  <died_at>05/08/1996</died_at>
