Retold by Rachel Isadora.
Illustrated by
Rachel Isadora.
Isadora creates a sunlit African setting for her retelling of this classic tale, giving a new look to Andersen's story of a swan child born into a duck family. Expressive images show the protagonist's growth and development from lonely hatchling to magnificent black swan. Brushstrokes in oil paint make for eye-catching textures in the vibrant cut-paper collages.
