World More Beautiful by Angela Burke Kunkel illustrated by Becca Stadtlander*

 Ms. Kunkel presents an overview of Barbara Cooney's life, from her childhood through her dedication to financing a library for her town in Maine. I love the book's endsheets-purple for lupines and the illustration of Greece. An afterword from her son Barnaby is a special feature!

Read this one and Because Barbara by Sarah Mackenzie to compare/contrast. Because Barbara seemed more personal for some reason??

*Highly recommend.

-Borrowed from the library.
