WORLD MORE BEAUTIFUL: THE LIFE AND ART OF BARBARA COONEY written by Angela Burke Kunkel and illustrated by Becca Stadtlander

 Angela Burke Kunkel’s WORLD MORE BEAUTIFUL: THE LIFE AND ART OF BARBARA COONEY is a picture book biography of the most wonderful kind for not only does it tell the story of her life and its connection to her work, it has a simple lyricism that matches her style. Illustrations by Becca Stadtlander are the same for they embrace and honor Cooney’s ability to portray vistas so welcoming that you felt as if you’ve entered the story.There’s more information about this book in the purchase link below.
