Norman Hunter

    23. listopad 1899 – 23. únor 1995

    Autor, jehož spisovatelská kariéra začala v oblasti reklamy a divadelního kouzelnictví, se proslavil především díky sérii knih o profesorovi Branestawmovi. Tyto humorné příběhy, původně zamýšlené pro rozhlas, se vyznačují hravým duchem a vynalézavými zápletkami, které uchvátily generace mladých čtenářů. Jeho dílo často proplétá prvky magie a logických hádanek, což odráží jeho vlastní zájem o kouzelnické triky a hlavolamy. Autorův osobitý styl, který kombinuje chytrý humor s nečekanými dějovými zvraty, z něj činí jedinečnou postavu v dětské literatuře.
