Description | A creative spirit learns that thinking "ish-ly"- is far more wonderful than "getting it right"- in this gentle fable from the creator of the award-winning picture bookA The Dot. Ramon loved to draw. Anytime. Anything. Anywhere. Drawing is what Ramon does. It s what makes him happy. But in one split second, all that changes. A single reckless remark by Ramon s older brother, Leon, turns Ramon s carefree sketches into joyless struggles. Luckily for Ramon, though, his little sister, Marisol, sees the world differently. She opens his eyes to something a lot more valuable than getting things just "right."- Combining the spareness of fable with the potency of parable, Peter Reynolds shines a bright beam of light on the need to kindle and tend our creative flames with care. |
