Sibert Honor Book\n\nWinner of the Schneider Family Book Award\n\nAn ALA-ALSC Notable Children's Book\n\nWinner of the NCTE Orbis Pictus Award for Outstanding Nonfiction for Children\n\nAs a child in the late 1800s, Horace Pippin loved to draw: He loved the feel of the charcoal as it slid across the floor. He loved looking at something in the room and making it come alive again in front of him. He drew pictures for his sisters, his classmates, his co-workers. Even during W.W.I, Horace filled his notebooks with drawings from the trenches . . . until he was shot. Upon his return home, Horace couldn't lift his right arm, and couldn't make any art. Slowly, with lots of practice, he regained use of his arm, until once again, he was able to paint--and paint, and paint! Soon, people—including the famous painter N. C. Wyeth—started noticing Horace's art, and before long, his paintings were displayed in galleries and museums across the country.\n\nJen Bryant and Melissa Sweet team up once again to share this inspiring story of a self-taught painter from humble beginnings who despite many obstacles, was ultimately able to do what he loved, and be recognized for who he was: an artist.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0375867120\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: RDV.0375867120.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Sweet, Melissa|Bryant, Jen\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This book is in excellent condition.
