Because Barbara

By: Sarah Mackenzie

$25.95

Legendary picture book creator Barbara Cooney once noticed that the library in her little town by the sea needed attention. A library, she knew, should be a kind of paradise. And because Barbara did whatever she set her mind to, she made it one.

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 FoxOx-Cart ManMiss RumphiusRoxaboxen, 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.
