Picture the Sky by Barbara Reid
2018 CBC Fan Choice Award Winner
A lyrical, beautifully illustrated look at the sky.
The sky can often tell different stories: in the clouds having a parade, in the stars blanketing the night, and in our imagination. Every hour, every day, in every season, the sky is different. In this companion to Picture a Tree, award-winning creator Barbara Reid offers a lyrical story using plasticine relief illustrations to explore the wondrous and ever-changing sky.
Barbara Reid d?veloppe une v?ritable passion pour la plasticine d's l'?cole primaire. Mais c'est seulement au secondaire qu'elle r?alise qu'elle peut en faire son m?tier. Elle s'inscrit aussit't au Coll?ge des Arts et obtient son dipl?me en 1980. Depuis, Barbara r?alise des illustrations en p?te ? modeler. Elle est aussi l'auteure des textes de plusieurs de ses livres bien qu'elle avoue ne pas ?prouver autant de plaisir ? ?crire une histoire qu'? l'illustrer. ? Les ?crivains sont mes h?ros! Moi, je ne fais que d?corer l'histoire ?, dit-elle. Barbara vit avec son mari ? Toronto.
