Deletion of James Watson (author) (2nd nomination)

Comment: Watson's novel ''Talking in Whispers'' seems to have garnered enough attention to merit an article per  criteria #4, as Google books shows that it is used in many curricula. Perhaps the article could be rewritten with an emphasis on the book, with the author's biograpical information retained? It would then need to be moved to the new title "Talking in Whispers". Note that this is simply a suggestion, I have no strong inclination towards keeping or deleting the article

Comment: Talking in Whispers'' (1983) is listed (and given an extensive page-long discussion) as one of the critic Julia Eccleshare's ''1001 Children's Books You Must Read Before You Grow Up'' (Cassell, 2009).  This establishes  as a significant children's author. ''The Freedom Tree'' (1976) is also widely reviewed.  A profile of the author with a critical assessment of his career to date was included in ''Something about the author'', vol '''10''', p. 192 (Gale Research, 1976), confirming independent assessment of his notability in this field, even then
