Goudge, Elizabeth: - Elizabeth Goudge (1900-1984) was one of the most popular British novelists of the twentieth century. Her Green Dolphin Street, a #1 New York Times bestseller, was made into an Academy Award-winning film. She also wrote many acclaimed childrens books--in 1946 she won the Carnegie Medal for The Little White Horse, which J. K. Rowling has said was her favorite book as a child. Elizabeth Goudges Christian spirituality pervades all her work, but nowhere as explicitly as in her books God So Loved the World: The Story of Jesus Christ and My God and My All: The Story of Saint Francis of Assisi.
