Emily's Art

(3) K-3 Emily, who loves drawing, loses the first-grade art contest. She feels like a part of her has been taken away, and indeed she appears translucent in the watercolor illustrations until she begins drawing again at the behest of her best friend. Filled with touches of humor and authentically childlike emotions, this book explores the subjectivity of opinion and the importance of personal conviction.
