Grandma Moses
A major reexamination of the life, art, and legacy of a self-taught American masterGrandma Moses: A Good Dayâ ™s Work repositions Anna Mary Robertson â œGrandmaâ Moses (1860â “1961) as a multidimensional force in American art, whose beloved recollections of rural life earned her a distinctive place in the cultural imagination of the postwar era. Moses was eighty years old when Otto Kallir, a New York art dealer and recent émigré from Nazi-held Austria, introduced her to the world. â œGrandma Moses,â as the press dubbed her, quickly became a polarizing figure, beloved by the public yet dismissed by the art world for her story-time scenes and lack of formal training. Drawing on Mosesâ ™s reflection on her own life as â œa good dayâ ™s work,â the book charts Mosesâ ™s creative development from her earliest artistic efforts to the emergence of her signature style, revealing a multidimensional artist who fused direct observation of nature, labor, and personal memories to tell idiosyncratic yet compelling stories. It positions Moses as a central figure in the history of twentieth-century American art, a painter whose life and work bore witness to the Civil War, two world wars, and the civil rights era. Beautifully illustrated, Grandma Moses: A Good Dayâ ™s Work captures the indomitable spirit Moses brought to her artmaking, conveying a candor and authority that still resonate today with the quest for a homespun American visual tradition.

He has journeyed to Panama in pursuit of one goal: eliminating malaria.But everything hangs in the balance as his wife Marian falls ill herself.When John witnesses an act of bravery and compassion from Ada one day, he hires her on the spot as a caregiver for his wife.

Me and You and the Universe - Marcolla Bernardo
Bringing together the worlds of social-emotional learning (SEL) and STEM, this calming and colorful picture book illustrates how we are all connected. By taking the reader on a journey from the miniscule (cells, the building blocks of nature) to the massive (a universe that is infinite), Me and You and the Universe teaches children about universality and connectedness and fosters an appreciation for nature and our worlds ecology. Author Bernardo Marcolla beautifully articulates the importance of learning at an early age to look up to the sky and, as we see the stars, to know that we are part of them. The world will remain the same, but if we open our eyes and our hearts, our experience will be completely different. Although we seem different from each other, all of us, deep down inside, are very similar.
