Picasso Rita's Sketchbook, (Hardcover)

<p>Nine-year-old Picasso Rita Graham sees what other people miss.</p><p>While her classmates play with toys and video games, Picasso Rita fills her sketchbook with the faces she finds on the streets of Harborview - the tired man on the bench, the old woman with the shopping cart, the gentle-eyed stranger by the fountain. To her, every face holds a story worth telling.</p><p></p><p>Then one rainy Tuesday, she sketches a tall man in a dark hoodie slipping through the back door of a jewelry store. Soon her pages fill with something far more dangerous than portraits: evidence. When the hooded stranger turns up at the bank where her mother works, Picasso Rita has to decide whether a quiet girl with a pencil is brave enough to stop him.</p><p>A heartfelt story about art, courage, and the power of truly seeing people, Picasso Rita's Sketchbook shows young readers that their gifts - however unusual - can change the world around them.</p><p></p>
