Narrative In Favor Of Books Frida
When her mother was worn out from caring for her five sisters, her father gave her lessons in brushwork and color. When polio kept her bedridden for nine months, drawing saved her from boredom. When a bus accident left her in unimaginable agony, her paintings expressed her pain and depression - and eventually, her joys and her loves. Over and over again, Frida Kahlo turned the challenges of her life into art. Now Jonah Winter and Ana Juan have drawn on both the art and the life to create a playful, insightful tribute to one of the twentieth century's most influential artists.

"Pinta lo que ven sus ojos y lo que siente su corazón"The illustrations are beautiful in this book. Shout out to Ana Juan. The book gives a brief bio of Frida's life for a two year old.A fantastic introduction to Frida Kahlo for young children. I read this book to my preschool class. They were intrigued by the art and asked lots of questions. I know the details of Fridas life arent exactly kid friendly but this book did a great job of telling the children about her while not describing things in detail. Frida is my favorite artist so it was really fun to share with my students!
A great introduction to this artist. The pictures are unique and strange and tie in with her actual art. I enjoyed reading this to my daughter to help introduce her to Frida.
I am doing a great artist study with my kinders and I got this book to introduce them to Frida Kahlo. What a great book! The art is fantastic and gives a good intro for kids to Frida. I checked this out from the library, but this is definitely one I am going to buy for my classroom!
Uninspired and staccato writing. There are many other books about Frida Kahlo that are much better.
