Emily Carr and Her Dogs: Flirt, Punk, and Loo Details
About the Author Young, spirited and rebellious, Emily Carr escaped a strict Victorian household to study art in the Paris of Picasso and Matisse. In middle age, she shook the dust of acceptable society from her shoes and began a passionate journey into the wilderness of British Columbia; the power of her genius made her one of the twentieth century's great painters. Fortunately, she also wrote. In her books, her warmth, her humanity, her sense of fun and the ridiculous combine to present a self-portrait of a remarkable woman and artist. -- Mary Pratt Read more
Reviews
I loved the illustrations as much as the story of Emily's venture of starting a breeding kennel . Her love of her Bobbies was apparent from the first page to the last:This book would be very suitable for teen readers and all animal lovers.
