At the Crossroads
An early title by the author/illustrator whose work now differs than shown in this title. These illustrations are full page paints and her more re ent illustrations feature righter colors, more individualize objects, and lots of white space. Most interesting in these illustrations are the reality of the living spaces which are made of tin and the need of carrying the necessary daily water that is used from the well. Also seeing the students ready for school is revealing for the fact there are no girls included.
Good title to see life lived in an area few of us will see or experience.
