Product Description
Barbara Cooney set her mind to lots of things―none so dear as capturing the beauty of the world in her paintings. These paintings would form the settings for her award-winning picture books, including Chanticleer and the Fox, Ox-Cart Man, Miss Rumphius, Roxaboxen, and others.
Follow Barbara from New York to Maine, from the shores of Greece to the mountains of Appalachia, as she captures their beauty and creates some of the most magnificent books for children ever published.
A picture book biography from Waxwing Books about one of America’s best-loved and most celebrated children’s book illustrators.
