Description

Product Description "Sometimes a book is more than a book-it is a way for readers to meet an extraordinary person and discover an exceptional life. Winfred Rembert grew up in the 1950s in rural Georgia as the child of sharecroppers. Now, in his own voice and through his powerful paintings, he shares with young people his story and his passionate commitment to self-improvement. Reminiscent of the work of Jacob Lawrence and Horace Pippin, the paintings' rich, deep colors and poignant details powerfully narrate a story of personal courage and exceptional talent...."
