Paint the Wind by Alberta Pierson Hannum

I may be a fanatic but i have read this book about eight times. It is very immersing and you have to read it to find out the rest! Congrats to Pam, and I hope to see this book skyrocket a little more in popularity! Needless to say this is a unique and really fun book to read. I would not have found this book had my mother not had that experience and brought home a signed copy of the finished book one day.ĭon't get me wrong, I am glad that I did! Every day I get to thinking 'I should really re-read that book' and then that other voice, the one with little horns and a red cape shows up and is all like 'You have 20 other books that you 'should really re-read again' don't even start adding to that already extensive list!' Then the one with the tiny white wings sighs and doesn't mention it again for.like.8 hours.

The publicity of this book is not what it should be. The two chatted, exchanged emails, and I suppose it was over there.Ĭool as that was, and as much as I fan-girled at the the prospect that my mother had met such a wonderful author, it saddens me to say something. She was on a research trip for this very book. Coincidently, Pam (the author of this book) was there at the same time as my mother. Signed by Illustrator(s).My mother was visiting with her father for a week-long horse-back riding trip somewhere out in Nevada once upon a time. I've had the jacket fitted into a protective cover for long as I've owned it. It's quite clean and has only minimal edge wear (a couple of small tears off the rear top edge). Other than that, the dust jacket is in very good condition. There's also a crease running down the middle of the spine. The Good Rating is due to the loss at both spine ends. The jacket illustration is from a painting by Beatien Yazz. It is NOT price-clipped and the flaps are in excellent condition. friend Beatien Yazz.') no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. And with the exception of the illustrator's signature ('Thank you. There aren't any markings or attachments. There isn't any creasing, no dogeared corners. The pages in the book are exceptionally clean, including the inside covers and end papers. The book is solidly bound, no cracks or spaces anywhere. Overall, the wear on the covers is fairly minimal, slight rubbing with a little rub-through at the corners and a little creasing and fraying at the spine ends. They are very clean (there are a few speck-sized bright spots on the rear), and both the beautiful illustration of the horse on the front, and the gilt lettering on the spine, are very bright and unworn. You can see the blue covers of the book in the photographs provided. Signed by the 'Navaho Boy Artist Little No-Shirt (Beatien Yazz)'.
