Georgia's Bones by Bryant, Jen. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780802852175.

Author Jen Bryant (The Right Word) and illustrator Bethanne Andersen hail the unique work and spirit of artist Georgia O’Keeffe in this picture book biography. Growing up on a Wisconsin farm, Georgia OKeeffe began gathering all sorts of objects ― sticks and stones, flowers and bones. Although she was teased for her interest in unique shapes and sizes, young Georgia declared: “Someday, I’m going to be an artist” ― and that is exactly what she became. Jen Bryant’s story of Georgia O’Keeffe honors the famous artist’s fascination with natural shapes, “common objects,” and her unusual way of looking at the world. Bethanne Andersen’s fluid, graceful illustrations capture the beauty of O’Keeffe’s work and spirit.
