    Drawing from Memory HC (2011 Scholastic Press) 1-1ST

    1st printing. Story and art by Allen Say. Shunned by his father, who didn't understand his son's artistic leanings, Allen was embraced by Noro Shinpei, Japan's leading cartoonist and the man he came to love as his "spiritual father." As World War II raged, Allen was further inspired to consider questions of his own heritage and the motivations of those around him. He worked hard in rigorous drawing classes, studied, trained - and ultimately came to understand who he really is. Part memoir, part graphic novel, part narrative history, Drawing From Memory presents a complex look at the real-life relationship between a mentor and his student. Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 64 pages, full color. Cover price $17.99.
