Three books about the famous photograph taken during the Great Depression/Dust Bowl and about the photographer, Dorothea Lange-
A historical fiction picture about the "Migrant Mother" and her family. Ruby, middle daughter, tells their story.
Ruby's Hope by Monica Kulling illustrated by Sarah Dvojack
*highly recommend.
-Borrowed from the library
Migrant Mother by Don Nardo
Informative yet easy to read. Mr. Nardo presents Dorothea Lange and how her photography impacted the United States and also the story of the migrant mother. Full of photographs (very apropos). Consider-one photograph shows Florence Thompson nursing her child.
-Borrowed from the library.
Dorothea's Eyes by Barb Rosenstock illustrated by Gerard DuBois-Ms. Rosenstock offers a comprehensive overall of Dorothea Lange's life -from her childhood to her success as a photographer. Throughout the book, Ms. Rosenstock incorporates repeated phrases and themes. The timeline was informative. I liked how Ms. Lange's famous photographs are included at the end.
*Highly recommend. -Borrowed from the library.
