This book shows how artists seek to bring life into art

This simple children's book will bring you to tears. The young artist learns from his dying friend a killer whale how an artist must bring life into his carving. This is lovely book about art, and on being open to freeing up the artist inside the child. As both a carver and a teacher I love this book.
