This picture book biography talks about her working on movies like Dumbo and Lady and the Tramp. She left Disney, but ended up traveling with Walt Disney and the company on a trip to South America. I love that the trip inspired her creativity, her use of colors, and opened her eyes to power of possibilities. I love that the children influenced her. A really great book about believing in magic, the inspiration of art, and colors. I loved the art work and how the illustrator was inspired by Mary Blair.
