Art and Words,
By "labrat_orion" (Highlands Ranch, Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Butterfly Seeds, The (Hardcover)
The words maybe of a childrens book but the paintings are great for all to enjoy. I actually was a friend of Mary's, my Dad and I. The pictures truly catch the essence of the people who posed for them! The pictures were painted of real people including many that I know! It is an beautiful book no matter how you look at it.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Butterfly Seeds, The (Hardcover)
We spoke to the author after hearing the book read on a children's TV show early one morning. My mom said the painting of the green grocer actually looked like my grandfather who passed away in 1949 before I was born. It gave us great pride in our family. The book captures the age before readily available voice technology. Those immigrants could not reach back to their loved ones without using very slow mail. How difficult that must have been.
