Résumé

From the time he was a little boy, Vincent van Gogh often lay awake at night. He used that time to imagine swirls of color and starlight shapes, to draw—and to explore the rich, dark life of midnight outdoors. He grew into a young man who wandered cities and country villages, painting the world as he saw it—even when no one else saw it the same way. Van Gogh never achieved success in his lifetime, but he also never veered from his passion for art.
He would go on to become one of the most beloved painters of all time. Vincent Can't Sleep is a celebration of creativity, individuality, and the power of sticking with something that you love, from the acclaimed team behind the Caldecott Honor Book The Noisy Paint Box.
BARB ROSENSTOCK is the author of the Caldecott Honor Book The Noisy Paint Box : The Colors and Sounds of Kandinsky's Abstract Art, which was also illustrated by Mary GrandPré.
