Diane M Wonderful account of an amazing children's book author and artist. The documentary starts off slow but soon blossoms with photos, narrative and interviews with family members, friends and students. You get a true sense of the caring, disciplined, exuberant woman she was and the artistic gifts she shared. The extra features are especially interesting, focusing on her artistic process. She was a remarkably confident and independent woman, and a true pioneer in the field of children's literature. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/10/16 Full Review Read all reviews
