Hana in the Time of Tulips
by Bagram Ibatoulline, Deborah Noyes
Age: 4th grade
Media: Ink & oil?
Illustration Style: imitation of Dutch masters (Rembrandt), softened edges (to emulate child's point of view), darker paintings, focus on people
With an advanced storyline and darker pictures, this book is made to be read to an older audience that may be interested in older settings. Taking place in the 17th century, 5-year-old Hana shares a particularly fond relationship with her father. When he becomes wrapped up in Holland's tulipomania, his genuine affection towards his daughter dwindles. Hana, as his "Renowned Physician," sets out to find a cure, asking the people in her life. In the end, she decides to paint him tulips which allows her father to see his daughter's loving concern.
