Prairie Boy by Barb Rosenstock
Frank Lloyd Wright, a young boy from the prairie, becomes America's first world-famous architect in this engaging and inspirational non-fiction picture book introducing organic architecture and transformed the American home.
"An obsession with shapes serves as a leitmotif as Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) grows to be a master architect.. Neal's stylized illustrations are geometrically anchored, with crisp lines and shapes that occasionally echo Wright's signature patterning, and the earnest, informative narrative centers the subject's relatable interests. Substantial supplemental materials include an author's note, sources, and multiple photos of his work." -- Publishers Weekly
Barb Rosenstock, an Orbis Pictus Honoree, grew up in a rural area south of Chicago. Barb married and raised two sons who were huge fans of picture books, so she read a lot of them. While pursuing a master's degree in education, she began writing for children.
