Twin brother and sister solicit stories from their grandfather, Papa Chagall, who entrances the kids with a string of vignettes that combine to give a persistently chipper overview of the artist Marc Chagall's life (more substantial biographical information is inside the back cover). Anholt's loose-lined art captures many of Chagall's motifs and embodies the levity of much of his work; actual reproductions are worked in.
