5.0 out of 5 stars
Beauty, Inspiration, Tranquility.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sho and the Demons of the Deep (Folktale) (Library Binding)
Galouchko's original story is so inspired that it could easily be mistaken as a myth. In her paintings, even the rocks breathe and the ocean senses. It pulses with life, and honours our humanity. I have seldom come across a book which expresses compassion and restores dignity so simply and playfully.

This review is from: Sho and the Demons of the Deep (Paperback)
This story is one of strong significance for it addresses fear and liberation... A true testament to art as therapy! As an elementary art teacher, I use this book in the classroom in connection with none other than a kite-making project. It is amazing to watch the children grow from this singular story! Annouchka Gravel Galouchko's (and how is that said?) colorfully detailed illustrations do great justice to this inspirational Asian myth. The way she uses clusters of pattern, shape and color to direct the flow of the viewer's attention throughout an image is musical and captivating. With what seem to be thousands of eyes peering at the reader at each turn of a page, Galouchko undoubtedly reminds us that there is heart and soul in all of nature.
