This story of imagination and expression introduces young readers to Gertrude and her life partner, Alice B. Toklas, who lived in Paris during a fascinating time in history. Divided into short chapters that chronicle different episodes in Gertrude and Alice's life, this book celebrates two women who were full of daring and creativity at a time when women were encouraged to be wives, not writers. Author Evie Robillard's playful second-person free verse and illustrator Rachel Katstaller's charmingly detailed art beautifully capture the lively world of early 20th-century Paris. Young readers will learn about how Gertrude made up her own writing rules. They'll even learn how sitting around "doing nothing, really doing nothing" is a very important part of being a genius! Gertrude's ingenuity and the childlike joy she found in words and ideas are showcased by the inclusion of quotations from her work. Backmatter includes a timeline, resources and an author's note for further learning."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 600 10 $a Stein, Gertrude, $d 1874-1946 $v Juvenile literature. 600 10 $a Toklas, Alice B. $v Juvenile literature. 600 10 $a Stein, Gertrude, $d 1874-1946 $x Friends and associates $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 20th century $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 600 17 $a Stein, Gertrude, $d 1874-1946. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00030233 600 17 $a Toklas, Alice B. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00004278 650 7 $a Authors, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821764 650 7 $a Friendship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00935174 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Juvenile works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411637 700 1 $a Katstaller, Rachel, $e illustrator. 941 $a 3 952 $l AEPA906 $d 20220729091151.0 $m Ch Fic 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20201007082514.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20200407021912.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8D860AB0789511EA8FAC8C5897128E48 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
