Noonie’s Masterpiece by Lisa Railsback with illustrations by Sarajo Frieden
 

Noonie Norton is an undiscovered artist, ho just happens to be ten years old, living with an aunt, uncle and cousin She has decided to write about herself and her art as most artists are only discovered when they are dead and she thinks she needs to explain the interpretations of her art while she is alive. She also feels that people will want to know about her when she is dead and famous so she should write about her life now at age ten.

Noonie has lost her mother, she died when Noonie was in kindergarten, and she misses her Dad terribly but because of his job, he can’t always be there with her. Noonie’s mother was an artist before she died, which is why Noonie wants to be an artist too.

It is a humorous and heartfelt story of a young girl expressing her feelings in art and shows readers that sometimes the greatest masterpieces are not on canvas but in the bonds we create with those around us. Also despite the sadness in her life, part of her is always positive and believes in her own talent.
