Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
A charming, simply told account, in Spanish and English, of the life of Diego Rivera, the Mexican muralist whose art is said to cover more than two and a half miles of walls throughout Mexico and North America.
School Library Journal
Gr 1-4-- An accessible picture book about the life and work 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 journeyman's job of conveying facts in well-condensed sentences; the Spanish translation is clear and easy to follow even for those readers without fluency in the language. Each picture is bordered with Mexican folk-art designs done in vivid, resonant, tropical tones. The paintings themselves are done in Rivera's own colossal style, even though they actually measure only a few inches square. Winter displays her clear knowledge of and love for her subject. Frida Kahlo appears in one scene without any identification other than her distinctive eyebrows; this subtle allusion is the only mention of Rivera's tempestuous personal life. The last pictures show him as a young man, perched on his scaffolding, brushes in hand, beckoning viewers on with his ardent glance. Readers will wish they could follow. --Ruth Semrau, Lovejoy School, Allen, TX

    What a beautiful book !

    I named my son after the great Maestro. On his last day at our Back Up Center I gave a copy to his caregivers. They tell me the children love the story, the vibrant colors in each page. And as a parent,I love what it teaches. This is a must have for children starting their libraries.

    LOVE IT!

    Bought this book years ago for the child I knew I'd have someday. Now that she's here, I can't wait to share it with her when she's the right age.

    Great art, interesting story and spanish lesson in 1 book

    I purchased this book to help my 8 year with his Spanish. His 11 year old brother enjoyed the story and the artwork. My 8 year liked having the 2 languages side by side and the artwork grabbed his attention. After I thought my boys went to bed I found the book open, next to a sketch pad. My older son tried to recreate one of Winter's drawings. A compliment to her style.
