The Art Room delights readers with a glimpse into the world of
artistic expression, fun and freedom that renowned Northwest Coast
artist Emily Carr created for her students. For any child who loves
art, it would be the gift of a lifetime to be able to study with a
great contemporary artist. This delightful story-poem recreates the
wonderful world of “the art room,” where famous Northwest Coast
painter Emily Carr taught drawing and painting to children to
support herself in the early 1900s. Filled with Carr’s love of
animals, her insistence on painting from life and nature, and the
sense of fun and freedom that she inspired in her young students,
author Susan Vande Griek provides a fascinating glimpse into the
life of this extraordinarily gifted artist. It is also a book bound
to inspire today’s children to make an “art room” of their
own. Illustrator Pascal Milelli has brilliantly accomplished the
very difficult job of painting a book about a painter. His rich
style is a perfect foil for the work that Carr was doing at the
time. This book reminds us of what a joyous experience art can be,
and can serve as an inspiration to children who love to look at the
world and try to reflect its beauty in their own creations. This
edition features an updated font and an author’s note. Key Text
