Quotes

Praise for Maybe An Artist:* "...Montague's illustrations, rendered in a flat pastel color palette and paired with deadpan humor and insightful social commentary, crafts an inspiring journey of self-discovery, self-expression, and self-love." -- Publisher's Weekly, starred review"A delightful combination of text and images delivered with humor and heart." -- Kirkus Reviews "The book is very effective in capturing the frustration and confusion of a young person dealing with a learning disorder and using her love of art to help her navigate reading. Montague's story is sometimes poignant but ultimately sweet and uplifting, and it will provide inspiration for young artists everywhere." -- School Library Journal
