A Picture for Marc
Growing up in a small Russian town in the late 1800s, Marc doesn't know what art is. He doesn't even know what drawing is, until one of his schoolmates shows him how to trave a picture in a magazine. Marc loves how happy tracing makes him, but he doesn't want to draw pictures that other people have already made. He wants to make pictures no one has ever seen before - his uncle Noah on the roof, flying cows, giant chickens, happy men with fiddles, and women with lambs.rnSuddenly Marc knows what he wants to be when he grows up. He wants to be an artist! The only problem is, will his family let him?rnIn A Picture for Marc, Eric A. Kimmel tells the charming story of Marc Chagall's discovery of his incredible talent many years before he became a well-loved and world-famous artist.
