How to Paint the Portrait of a Bird | Jacques Prevert

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

A GIFT FOR EVERYONEA child wakes up, puts up an easel, picks up a brush and paints--paints a perch, a tree, the warmth of the sun and the sound of the summer breeze, and eventually a bird comes and sings. This is both the most personal and the most universal of books from Caldecott Medal winner Mordicai Gerstin: a fable about art, wonder, and creativity that has a meaning and a message for every reader. Universal appeal and illustration rich in warmth, color and feeling make this jewel of a picture book a lovely choice for the gift-giving season.

How to Paint the Portrait of a Bird | Jacques Prevert

pick

#BloomingBibliophiles Day 5: This one clearly has #BirdOnTheCover. According to Prévert‘s poem which Gerstein adapted in this glorious picturebook, one needs to begin with a cage with an open door. The idea is to create something that would allow that elusive beauty to come just a tiny bit closer, pay attention, and step into one‘s art. My review: https://wp.me/pDlzr-j5G
