Illustrated by Patricia Polacco (and written by other author)

Firetalking (1994) with Lawrence Migdale (Photographer) "In the useful Meet the Author series, a particularly appealing entry from an author/illustrator whose picture books have grown directly out of a life experience that has included shuttling between divorced parents, an old-country ``babushka,'' growing up in a mixed California neighborhood, and marriage to a Jewish Italian. Polacco also, in this lively, forthright self- portrait, describes overcoming a learning disability and going on to get a doctorate in art history and also her methods of working, both the nitty gritty and the inspirational (``I listen to music and let my imagination soar. I take rocking so seriously I have at least one or two rockers in every room''). Succinct and remarkably well detailed." -- Kirkus Reviews Teaching With Favorite Patricia Polacco Books (2002) by Immacula A. Rhodes Creative, skill-building activities for exploring the themes in these popular books.
