Market! by Ted Lewin
Go on a trip around the globe and visit the marketplace! With gorgeous watercolor paintings, Ted Lewin's Market! is a beautiful and child-friendly look at diverse cultures around the world.
From the highlands of the Andes to the steamy jungles of central Africa, from the fabled souks of Morocco to the tough New York waterfront, people come to the market.
They come barefoot and bent with backbreaking loads, they come on jungle trials and roads jammed with traffic. They even come by canoe! They come any way they can to sell, to catch, to make, and to buy.
Lewin, Ted: - Ted Lewin grew up in Buffalo, New York, with two brothers, one sister, two parents, a lion, an iguana, and a chimpanzee. He became interested in art as a young boy when he would draw his brothers' world of wrestling. Ted later worked as a professional wrestler to finance his studies at the Pratt Institute of Fine Arts, where he met his wife, Betsy Lewin, also a children's book writer and illustrator. He and his wife travel around the world to research the settings for their books. While working on SACRED RIVER, which he both wrote and illustrated, Ted joined thousands of Hindus on their pilgrimage to the banks of the Ganges River in Benares, India. Ted now lives and works in the brownstone he shares with his wife and their two cats in Brooklyn, New York. For more information visit www.tedlewin.com.
