(3) K-3 Illustrated by Catherine Stock. Eight-year-old Ti Marie would love to paint, but her family is too poor to buy any supplies. Using her own ingenuity, Ti Marie finds a way to get herself some paints and with her beautiful pictures encourages crowds to buy the vegetables at her mother's market stall. Stock's watercolors extend the story, adding fresh details of Haitian island life. Williams includes an informative note about Haitian artists. Glos.
