Maybe Something Beautiful: How Art Transformed a Neighborhood

40 pp. | Houghton | April, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-544-35769-3 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Rafael López. Hoping to brighten her "gray city," Mira gifts her art to the diverse people around her. Her quest expands when she meets an artist; together they involve the whole neighborhood in filling every surface with art and poetry. The mixed-media illustrations--created by one of the founders of the Urban Art Trail movement on which this story is based--joyfully celebrate creation and community.
