Vibrant miniature paintings convey the sense of adventure and magic that marked Riveras early years. And the story shows how his passion for painting and love for his country combined to make a powerful art celebrating the Mexican people ---------- Es la historia de Diego Rivera, el gran muralista Mejicano--y del mundo--y está contada en Español y en Inglés.

Review An accessible picture book about the life of Diego Rivera sounds like an oxymoron, but Winter and Winter succeed beyond belief. His early life is the focus; the text in Spanish and English captions the paintings. It does a journeymans job of conveying facts in well-condensed sentences; the Spanish translation is clear and easy to follow. The paintings are done in Riveras own colossal style, even though they actually measure only a few inches square. Winter displays her clear knowledge of and love for her subject.--(starred) School Library Journal. ---------- Una excelente primera biografía. -- Kirkus Reviews Ganadora del Premio New York Times Best Illustrated Childrens Book y del Reading Rainbow™ Book From the Inside Flap This story of Diego Rivera, the greatest muralist of Mexico--and of the world--is told in Spanish and English.
