This book is about Jean-Michel Basquiat's life and how he becomes a famous artist. He goes through hardships and trials that get him to where we is in life now. It is a great way to show children that one can do anything you set your mind to. It may not come easy but nothing does and to push through hardships is a part of life. The other thing is this book is a great way to incorporate art in a book. AwardsDistinctionsNotable Lists
Jean-Michael Basquiat and his unique, collage-style paintings rocked to fame in the 1980s as a cultural phenomenon unlike anything the art work had ever seen. But before that, he was a little boy who saw art everywhere: in poetry books and museums, in games and in the words that we speak, and in the pulsing energy of New York City. Now, award-winning illustrator Javaka Steptoe's vivid text and bold artwork echoing Basquiat's own introduce young readers to the powerful message and art doesn't always have to be neat or clean--and definitely not inside the lines--to be beautiful.
