I loved “in the realms of the unreal” when it came out. Darger is one mysterious dude. I certainly understand the hibernating instinct.

Lots of joys while visiting friends over New Year‘s!

"Eventually Frida decided to show everyone her work. Her pictures caused a great stir in New York City."

This book would be great for the older grades. When the books start to become more informational and in depth, I think that it would be beneficial for the older grades. This would be a great book to highlight the importance of women. It can be entertaining, but also seen as controversial, so take caution while reading through it with children. It is an easy book for children to identify the characters.

Biography: Frida Kahlo by Isabel Sanchez Vegara. Published in 2015.
Biography of Frida Kahlo. This book follows the life of Frida Kahlo from her as a child to the impacts she made through her paintings as an adult. It doesn't stray away from the hardships she went through and how she overcame them.
The illustrations are vibrant like her paintings a tell a beautiful story.
