A moving and powerful introduction to the life and art of renowned
artist, Judith Scott, as told by her twin sister, Joyce Scott and
illustrated by Caldecott Honor artist, Melissa Sweet.
Judith Scott was born with Down syndrome. She was deaf, and never
learned to speak. She was also a talented artist. Judith was
institutionalized until her sister Joyce reunited with her and enrolled
her in an art class. Judith went on to become an artist of renown with
her work displayed in museums and galleries around the world.
Poignantly told by Joyce Scott in collaboration with Brie Spangler and
Melissa Sweet and beautifully illustrated by Caldecott Honor artist,
Melissa Sweet, Unbound is inspiring and warm, showing us that we can
soar beyond our perceived limitations and accomplish something
extraordinary.
