| | Synopsis
|
Gyo Fujikawa's iconic children's books are beloved all over the
world. Now it's time for Gyo's story to be told—a story of artistic
talent that refused to be constrained by rules or expectations.
Growing up quiet and lonely at the beginning of the twentieth
century, Gyo learned from her relatives the ways in which both women
and Japanese people lacked opportunity. Her teachers and family
believed in her and sent her to art school and later Japan, where her
talent flourished. But while Gyo's career grew and led her to work
for Walt Disney Studios, World War II began, and with it, her
family's internment. But Gyo never stopped fighting—for herself, her
vision, her family and her readers—and later wrote and illustrated
the first children's book to feature children of different races
interacting together. This ... book...touches on Gyo's difficult
experiences and growth. Through Julie Morstad's ...illustrations,
alternating between...black-and-white linework and...colour, and Kyo
Maclear's...writing, the story of this cherished figure is told at
last.
