Description
A girl with grit, determination, passion--and a paintbrush--can achieve amazing things! Whether working in his studio or out in the field, Japanese artist Hokusai had a constant tagalong--his youngest daughter, Eijo. Wherever they went, Eijo carried her own bag of brushes, and the same artistic brilliance and passion as her dad. Hokusai's Daughter tells the story of a clever girl who refused to believe that only men can create great works of art. Told over and over that she can't be an artist because she's a girl, Eijo sets out to prove everyone wrong. She's determined to become the koi that swims up the waterfall and becomes a mighty dragon--fighting against the current to be the artist she is meant to be. Her creativity and spunk surprise everyone, including her father, when she finally saves the day--and her dad's honor--to prove that she's not just a good artist, but a great one! Katsushika Oi, called Eijo, went on to create remarkable paintings and had a hand in her illustrious father's later work. She remains one of small number nineteenth-century women artists to earn a reputation in her lifetime. This beautifully illustrated bilingual story celebrates the power of grit and artistic expression, as it introduces young readers to a trailblazing figure who, like her famous father, left a lasting impression in the world of art. Hokusai's Daughter is a timeless tale that teaches kids to believe in themselves and follow their passion.
