Description: SIGNED/INSCRIBED by Tomie DePaola. The Legend of the Bluebonnet. Hardcover. Thick clusters of vivid blue flowers, which resemble old-fashioned sunbonnets, cover the Texas hills in the springtime every year. These lovely wild flowers, known by the name of bluebonnet, are the state flower of Texas. This favorite legend based on Comanche Indian lore, tells the story of how the bluebonnet came to be. Tomie dePaola's powerful retelling and his magnificent full-color paintings perfectly capture the Comanche People, the Texas hills, and the spirit of She-Who-Is-Alone, a little girl who made a sacrifice to save her tribe. Inscribed to the previous owner by the author/illustrator Tomie DePaola. A nice copy -- clean and tight, no writing or tears. Some edgewear/bumped corners to the boards and dj, which I will place in a protective mylar cover. Later printing, 1983, Putnams.
