Perfect Picture Book Friday! My Name Is Georgia by Jeanette Winter
Susanna Leonard Hill has a feature on her blog called Perfect Picture Book Friday. It is a list of “perfect” picture books recommended by all sorts of people. I chose this book because tomorrow we are going on vacation to New Mexico and I wanted to find a New Mexico related book. I found a lot of cool books having to do with New Mexico, but I choose "My Name is Georgia" because I thought it was "perfect" :) Georgia O'Keeffe wasn't born in New Mexico but she loved it there and painted the things she saw there.
I am blown away by this 10 year old boy, Erik and by his parents...Read for yourself his review of a book about Georgia O Keeffe for 6+ year olds...I am going to read this!

Thanks for sharing, Dr. Clune!
Erik I enjoyed your review of Georgia O’Keefe, by Jeanette Winter. She has written such outstanding historical fiction about outstanding people, and this one is no exception. Liked the video too.
Yes! isn’t it astonishing that Jeanette Winter makes Georgia O’ Keeffe accessible to children and that Erik has shared that. He is such an influence.
