Mr. Cornell's Dream Boxes

Children young and old will delight in the artistic splendor of this illustrated nonfiction tale from the author of Henriâ€™s Scissors, which Booklist called an â€œexemplary picture-book biography.â€

Joseph Cornell loved to draw and paint and collect things. With these drawings and paintings and collected treasures, he made marvelous shadowboxesâ€”wonderlands covered in glass. And who did he most like to share them with? Children, of course. For they noticed all the details and took in all the magic Mr. Cornell had created.

In this inspiring nonfiction picture book, Jeanette Winter has painted a moving portrait of a New York artist who always felt his work was best understood by children.
