This picture book biography received multiple awards and starred reviews.\n\nCorita Kent (1918–1986) lived a remarkable life as an artist, educator, nun, and activist. Unapologetically true to herself and her beliefs, Corita spread a powerful message of love, hope, and justice with her work, as it evolved from figurative and religious art, to serigraphs incorporating the sacred and the ordinary, to a sparser, more introspective style.\n\nThis timely story will draw readers into the life of a singular woman whose work and commitment invite us all to seek joy in the everyday, to observe the world with open eyes, and to question and see beyond the existing frameworks of society.\n\nThoughtfully written by Matthew Burgess and vibrantly illustrated by Kara Kramer, this beautiful biography, made in close collaboration with the Corita Art Center, includes reproductions of Corita’s works, a chronology, and author and illustrator notes.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 159270316X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.159270316X.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Burgess, Matthew|Kramer, Kara\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
