- Description
- Venerable illustrator and author Jerry Pinkney is a stalwart of children's literature. Best known for his sumptuously illustrated retellings of fables and folktales for children, Pinkney is a master at creating exquisitely detailed settings and expressive characters that, together, require very few -- if any -- words to get their stories across. Whether relating scenes from African-American history and culture, situating a familiar fable in an unfamiliar setting, or illustrating other authors' narratives, Pinkney's lush, superlative watercolor-and-pencil artwork is characterized by softness, fluidity, and playful humor that belie its meticulous, naturalistic detail. Start with: The Lion & the Mouse
