Description: Ish by Peter H. Reynolds From the award-winning author of "The Dot" comes a gentle tale of a creative free spirit who learns that thinking "ish-ly" is far more wonderful that "getting it right." FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description A creative spirit learns that thinking "ish-ly" is far more wonderful than "getting it right" in this gentle fable from the creator of the award-winning picture book The Dot.Ramon loved to draw. Anytime. Anything. Anywhere.Drawing is what Ramon does. Its what makes him happy. But in one split second, all that changes. A single reckless remark by Ramons older brother, Leon, turns Ramons carefree sketches into joyless struggles. Luckily for Ramon, though, his little sister, Marisol, sees the world differently. She opens his eyes to something a lot more valuable than getting things just "right." Combining the spareness of fable with the potency of parable, Peter Reynolds shines a bright beam of light on the need to kindle and tend our creative flames with care. Author Biography Peter H.
