And I Paint It: Henriette Wyeth\u2019s World<\/em>
\nby Beth Kephart (Author) and Amy June Bates (Illustrator)
\n@ Amazon<\/a> | Bookshop<\/a> | IndieBound<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> A father and daughter sneak away from their big, busy family to paint in the wild landscape. Together, they paint a lily, bright and white as a star; the green growing into the cap of a strawberry; the blue in the sky running pink. Henriette\u2019s father is N.C. Wyeth, the famous artist, who encourages her to paint what she sees, to awaken into her dreams, and she does, in this picture book inspired by a famous American family of artists.<\/p>\n

Snippet:<\/strong>
\nSo that it’s only Pa and it’s only me,
\nsensing deeply, like Pa says.
\nLooking. Seeing. Smelling the air
\nand the earth,
\nand the turpentine,
\nand also that flower. <\/p>\n
