A good obituary, recommended reading for those who did not know the range and importance of Jane’s work as a storyteller.
Also, for anyone with small children, I really urge them to find Owl Moon. All by itself it is a legacy.

Farewell Janet Yolen. Your picture book Owl Moon is a masterpiece, demonstrating that kid's books can convey reverence for nature.

In memory of Jane Yolen…her many wonderful books will live on. I still dream that someday I might get a book published and be next to hers on the library shelf.
