(3) K-3 Illustrated by Pascal Milelli. Canadian artist Tom Thomson teaches a young girl how to paint in an imagined chronicle of real events during the summer of 1914. Vande Griek paints with bold, visually descriptive words in the poetic text, regularly musing on the varying ways "the west wind blows." Milelli's oils on canvas vividly evoke the artist's style and the lakeside landscape. More on Thomson is appended. Reading list.
