(3) K-3 Illustrated by Raúl Colón. This bilingual picture book biography does respectful justice to its subject, exploring Márquez's early life and influences in Colombia. Brown's writing lilts with poetic cadences that reflect Márquez's spirit and soul. Colón's beautifully flowing rainbow-hued illustrations capture the spirit of magical realism that is so integral to Márquez's work. An author's note gives more biographical information.
