- Q5460592 abstract "Florence Crannell Means (May 15, 1891 Baldwinsville, New York - November 19, 1980 Boulder, Colorado) was an American writer for children and young adults.Her novel about Japanese internment, The Moved-Outers, won a Newbery Medal honor award in 1946.She married Carl Bell Means; they are buried at Crown Hill Cemetery, Wheat Ridge, Colorado.In The Horn Book Magazine, Jan/Feb 1945, Howard Pease, in his essay "Without Evasion", says: "Only at infrequent intervals do you find a story intimately related to this modern world, a story that takes up a modern problem and thinks it through without evasion. Of our thousands of books, I can find scarcely half a dozen that merit places on this almost vacant shelf in our libraries; and of our hundreds of authors, I can name only three who are doing anything to fill this void in children's reading. These three authors – may someone present each of them with a laurel wreath – are Doris Gates, John R. Tunis, and Florence Crannell Means." Many of Means's books dealt with the experiences of minorities in America, such as Japanese Americans in The Moved-Outers and African Americans in Shuttered Windows.".
