Reviews
"A wonderful picture book about creativity and collaboration ." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Burke Kunkel renders a genuinely suspenseful and touching account of Schön delicately approaching McCloskey with the idea of memorializing his book's characters." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "The well-executed , full-page illustrations rendered in a vintage style are perfect for the period they depict." -- Booklist "[Keane's] loose lines and energetic compositions are a good match for the conversational text." -- The Horn Book, "Ms. Keane's retro pictures here have wonderful color and ebullience, bringing liveliness even to static scenes (of quiet thought, of patient studio work) and acting as a visual reminder of the exciting potentialities of invention ." - The Wall Street Journal "A wonderful picture book about creativity and collaboration ." -- Kirkus Reviews , starred review "Burke Kunkel renders a genuinely suspenseful and touching account of Schön delicately approaching McCloskey with the idea of memorializing his book's characters." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "The well-executed , full-page illustrations rendered in a vintage style are perfect for the period they depict." -- Booklist "[Keane's] loose lines and energetic compositions are a good match for the conversational text." -- The Horn Book "A visually appealing and well-researched addition to biographical narratives." --School Library Journal

Synopsis
A beautiful and fascinating picture book biography that follows the lives of Robert McCloskey, creator of Make Way for Ducklings , and sculptor Nancy Sch n, whose famous bronze ducks grace Boston Public Garden. In the beginning, there was a boy named Robert McCloskey, growing up in Ohio, his hands always moving, always creating. Many years later, after attending art school in Boston, he would reflect on his days wandering through Boston Garden and write the classic picture book Make Way for Ducklings . In the beginning, there was also a girl named Nancy Sch n. She grew up in Newton, Massachusetts, working in her father's greenhouse, twisting wire and boughs into wreaths. Many years later, Nancy would look at Robert's drawings in Make Way for Ducklings and get the seed of an idea. That seed became the beloved bronze sculptures of Mrs. Mallard and her eight ducklings that stand in Boston Garden today. This stunning and clever picture book biography intertwines the lives of two phenomenal artists--who were contemporaries and friends--and reveals the extraordinary impact they've had on generations of children.

- 3***t (620)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasePerfect condition excellent seller
- m***a (259)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was in exactly the condition described in the listing. I generally don’t buy books that only have one photo.It was shipped quickly. The book arrived via Amazon box truck and was in Amazon packaging, so I assume this seller also lists books on Amazon. I wish I had known this as I am trying to not shop Amazon. I just think other buyers might want to know this. Still, the book was packed with care in a bubble envelope. Shipping costs were reasonable, but there was no tracking available.The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook by Macdonald (#187076052775)
