    Fran Milčinski

    Fran Milčinski je bil mladinski sodnik, humorist, satirik, mladinski pisatelj in dramatik. V značilnem satiričnem tonu je pogosto smešil slovensko malomeščanstvo in malomeščansko okolje, posmehoval se je uradništvu, političnim in kulturnim razmeram v katerih je sam rasel. Napisal je veliko umetnih pravljic, v katerih se je lotil prastarega pravljičnega motiva slovenske ljudske pesmi (Pravljice (1911), Tolovaj Mataj in druge slovenske pravljice (1917) ). Med njegova posebej znamenita dela sodijo Ptički brez gnezda ter ciklel pripovedi Butalci.

    Navdih za pisanje je pogosto dobival ob branju del svojih najljubših pisateljev (Dostojevski, Dickens, Twain). Sodi med največje slovenske literarne ustvarjalce.
