Draw! de Raúl Colón

Draw!

Autor Raúl Colón
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 sep 2014 – vârsta până la 8 ani

Cum îi explicăm unui copil că foaia albă de hârtie nu este un obstacol, ci o poartă către o lume fără limite? Remarcăm în Draw! un răspuns vizual fascinant la această întrebare, unde autorul Raúl Colón transformă izolarea unui băiat în camera sa într-o expediție vibrantă în inima Africii. Fiind o carte fără cuvinte, Draw! se bazează exclusiv pe puterea ilustrației pentru a comunica emoție și aventură, permițând micului cititor să „citească” imaginile în propriul ritm și să verbalizeze singur acțiunea. Subliniem modul în care Raúl Colón utilizează experiența sa personală pentru a construi personajul lui Leonardo, un mic artist care, înarmat doar cu un creion și un caiet, îmblânzește simbolic rinoceri și călătorește alături de un elefant protector. Ca și Ish de Peter H. Reynolds, această lucrare reușește să educe spiritul creativ fără a fi didactică, punând accent pe bucuria procesului artistic în detrimentul perfecțiunii tehnice. Dacă în alte lucrări ale sale, precum Any Small Goodness: A Novel of the Barrio, autorul explorează contextul social și familial, în Draw! el se apleacă asupra universului interior, demonstrând că imaginația este cel mai de preț instrument de libertate. Experiența de lectură este una contemplativă, dar plină de energie. Absența textului invită la o conexiune mai profundă între părinte și copil, transformând fiecare sesiune de citit într-un exercițiu de povestire creativă. Stilul artistic al lui Raúl Colón, cu texturile sale bogate și paleta cromatică caldă, oferă o alternativă tactilă și vizuală deosebită în categoria cărților ilustrate, încurajând copiii să își vadă propriile desene ca pe niște aventuri ce așteaptă să fie trăite.

Recenzii

A wordless picture book celebrates the power of art and imagination. A little boy reads about Africa and then creates his own adventures with his pencils and paints. Wordless books require readers to slow down and read the pictures, and careful children will see beyond the main storyline by looking at the whole illustration. Why is the boy in bed and not outside? The inhaler and bottle of medicine on the side table are hints. But binoculars and an umbrella on the other side of the table tell them that he is not always bedridden. As he draws, he falls deeply into the rich world of his imaginary Africa. First he draws an elephant, and then he rides away on it. He paints zebras, has a sandwich for lunch, records a giraffe stampede and shares one of his many other sandwiches with the gorillas. After a hair-raising encounter with an aggressive rhino, the little artist shares his pencils and food with other primates, who return the favor and sketch him. Colon's signature scratched-watercolor technique adds richness and emotion to this warm story, but it's the framing scenes at beginning and end that really sparkle here. Simple line-and-color washes put the young man at the center of the story and help readers identify with him. Young artists, reach for your sketchbooks. (Picture book. 4-8)--Kirkus, May 2014 *STARRED REVIEW
Using watercolor and colored pencils, Colon has created a wordless book (based on his childhood) that speaks volumes. A boy, home for the day perhaps because of an illness, sits on his bed reading a book about Africa. He begins to draw. Five identical, intensely colored pictures of the boy with an easel, art supplies, and a pit helmet increase in size as readers begin this richly imagined day on a safari. He draws an elephant as an egret watches, and atop the elephant's back, the boy and bird find a herd of zebras. They pose for him as he sits on a stump. Giraffes thunder by, raising clouds of golden dust. The boy draws them, his body aslant as his eyes follow them. He draws a gorilla, who holds his helmet and shares his sandwich. He draws lions, a water buffalo, and a hippo before sighting a charging rhinoceros. Running with all his might, he barely escapes the rhino. Baboons retrieve his pencils, set up his easel, and draw him. They also eat his sandwiches as the day slides into evening. A spread poignantly captures the parting of boy and elephant. Eyes closed, he lays his head against his friend's side while the elephant's trunk gently caresses the boy's cheek. As six identical paintings decrease in size, the book returns to the boy's pale room, now strewn with drawings. The final scene shows the boy at school, holding the elephant's picture front and center. The pleasure the boy takes in making and sharing his art is palpable. Young artists will love this book, as will all children who know the joy of exploring their own imaginations. A must-have for every library.--June 2014 "School Library Journal, STARRED REVIEW "
In Colon's (Baseball Is...) wordless fantasy, a boy lies on his bed, his sketchbook on the floor; he's lost in a large book titled Africa. As he takes up his sketchbook and begins to draw, small full-color panels of himself setting off across the African veldt sail forth from his mind like thought balloons. On the next page, he's entered his fantasy fully; he's in the African grasslands, carrying his drawing supplies and waving to a nearby elephant. After obligingly allowing its portrait to be drawn, the elephant carries the boy to meet other animals who pose for him--zebras, giraffes, and hippos. A rhinoceros portrait ends in near-calamity; a gang of baboons draw the boy. After a tender goodbye to the elephant, another series of sunlit panels retreats into the boy's head as he returns to real life. Colon's visual signature is the use of finely combed lines to trace the contours of his figures, a technique that's at once delicate and sensuous. It's a strongly developed and executed account of a childhood fantasy, urging all young artists to dream and to draw. Ages 4-8. Agency: Morgan Gaynin Inc. (Sept.)--Publishers Weekly, 6/23/14 *STARRED REVIEW
A boy in bed, asthma inhaler within reach, sketchbook at his side, looking at a book about Africa, is not confined by the walls of his room. As he begins to draw, he takes a journey. The palette changes from subdued pen-and-ink with wash in the bedroom to vibrant hues textured with scratched-in lines that seem to pulse, capturing the landscape and animals of Africa. On this wordless art safari, based on Colon's own childhood imaginings, first up is the elephant. This fellow is so pleased with the boy's portrait of him that he then accompanies the boy on his "hunt." They spot a zeal of zebras (one watches as the boy creates) and a pride of lions. A charging rhinoceros is calmed when shown a sketch of himself--made just in the nick of time! Youngsters will pore over each spread in wonder, soaking up the details. Upon his "return," the traveling artist shares his pictures with his classmates. A true celebration of where our imaginations can take us.--Booklist "August 1, 2014 "
A young artist, inspired by his books about African animals, is transported to an imaginary safari in this dreamy wordless book. Armed only with his pencil, sketch pad, and easel, this budding Leonardo finds his models in the African landscape--an elephant, zebras, giraffes, lions, gorillas (one of whom snatches the boy's pith helmet and lunch)--and all willing to pose. He has some adventures--a rhino charges him but is quickly placated when the boy shows it (from the safe distance of a tree branch) the portrait he drew. Then a group of baboons take the boy's drawing implements and turn the tables by sketching him (and it's not a terribly flattering portrait!). Ultimately he ends up back in his own bedroom, surrounded by the books that inspired him and the sketches we saw him make on his safari. The story line is engaging and easy to follow, and, while it's whimsical, the majesty of the animals comes through in both the boy's sketches and the main illustrations. Colon's pen-and-ink, watercolor, colored-pencil, and lithograph pencil pictures are nicely textured and tinged with golden hues. A final illustration shows the boy sharing his artwork in a class presentation; an appended author's note describes Colon's "aha moment" for the book.--Horn Book, *STARRED REVIEW "Sept/Oct 2014 "
