The Strange Birds of Flannery O'Connor by Amy Alznauer illustrated by Ping Zhu

 Over the past ten years I have read about Flannery O'Connor in numerous blogs and articles. I have not yet read any of her stories or writings. This biographical picture book heightens my interest in her and her writing.

This book focuses mainly on her creativity as a young child and then her determination to write despite Lupus overtaking her body. The bold, somewhat strange, over-sized illustrations depict Flannery's personality.

-Borrowed from the library.
