Early Life of Elwyn Brooks White

He was born on July 11, 1899, Mount Vernon, New York, a suburb in Manhattan. He was the youngest of six kids of Samuel Tilly White and Jessie Hart White. When Elwyn was growing up, (like most kids)
he didn't like school. He had a canoe at his family summer house in Maine. He loved Boats, to play with animals and to read and write. He won several Magazine awards before graduating school.
