Sorche Nic Leodhas
LeClaire Gowans Alger (May 20, 1898 – November 14, 1969) was an American writer better known under her pseudonym Sorche Nic Leodhas, or simply Sorche Leodhas.

She sought out traditional Scottish tales that had never been written down before. She won a Lewis Carroll Shelf Award in 1962 and a Newbery Honor for ''Thistle and Thyme: Tales and Legends from Scotland'' in 1963. Her 1965 children's picture book ''Always Room for One More'', illustrated by Nonny Hogrogian, won the 1966 Caldecott Medal. Provided by Wikipedia
