From the exhibit Those Telling Lines: The Art of Virginia Lee Burton March 24 - June 21, 2009 From "A Centenary Tribute" by Barbara Elleman, Guest Curator "On this centenary of her birth, Burton's techniques and style have earned her a secure place in children's literature. 'Those telling lines' she created still bring alive a sturdy steam shovel, a snowplow called to duty, a cable car ready to take on the steepest street, a legendary archer prepared to do battle, and a little house happy again in a hillside full of flowers. Together they personify the joy and love of life that were so much a part of Virginia Lee Burton and which she has given so abundantly to children through her books." 32 pages with black & white and color illustrations.
