But this little boy would grow up to follow his passion and greatly influence the world of art. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e After studying in Spain and France as a young man, Diego was excited to return to his home country of Mexico. There, he toured from the coasts to the plains to the mountains. He met the peoples of different regions and explored the cultures, architecture, and history of those that had lived before. Returning to Mexico City, he painted great murals representing all that he had seen. He provided the Mexican people with a visual history of who they were and, most important, who they are. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Award-winning author and illustrator Duncan Tonatiuh, who has also been inspired by the art and culture of his native Mexico, asks, if Diego was still painting today, what history would he tell through his artwork? What stories would he bring to life? Drawing inspiration from Rivera to create his own original work, Tonatiuh helps young readers to understand the importance of Diego Rivera's artwork and to realize that they too can tell stories through art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Abrams Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780810997318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 9.30w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Pura Belpre Award - Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Parents Choice Awards (Spring) (2008-Up) - Recommended\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/28\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2011 pg. 165\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2011 pg. 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2011 pg. 454 - Recommended, Satisfactory\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Best Children's Books\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2011 pg. 2121\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e144067 \/ Diego Rivera: His World and Ours\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.9 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Duncan Tonatiuh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36644284727452,"sku":"9780810997318","price":16.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_4d896e7e-f29f-4264-8e6c-c4147510c115.jpg?v=1603858264","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/diego-rivera-his-world-and-ours-9780810997318","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
