5.0 out of 5 stars A source of inspiration, December 3, 1999
This review is from: The Life and Wisdom of Gwen Frostic (Hardcover)
Gwen Frostic has been an icon for as long as I can remember going to her wonderful shop in Benzonia, Michigan. Incredible artwork, a very nice business (in the middle of nowhere!), but I always wanted to know more about her....why she was so successful, how she has overcome her handicap (what did she have)...she is so inspirational, and to know how and why is inspirational to me as well.

This book should become a classic.

This review is from: The Life and Wisdom of Gwen Frostic (Hardcover)
After having fallen in love with Gwen Frostic's creative books of prose illustrated with beautiful nature prints, I wanted to find out more about the woman and artist who crafted these treasures. Author Sheryl James does an excellent job rounding out the picture of the creator of these simple treasures, especially given that she had little direct information from Gwen Frostic herself, who did not really care to have a biography written. Heavily relying on bits and pieces of personal history and background information from Gwen's family members, Ms. James compiles a flowing account of the life of this exceptional woman. Gwen Frostic stood out from the crowd, followed her heart, and brought joy to so many through her artistry, and, in the process, brought happiness and prosperity to herself. Gwen's lovely books inspire in and of themselves. Her life story and accomplishments are inspirational, too. Especially for the Gwen Frostic fan, this biography is a must read!
