Residents along the Mississippi Gulf Coast thought Walter Anderson was odd, rowing across twelve miles of open water in a leaky skiff to reach Horn, an uninhabited island without running water or electricity. But this solitary artist didn't much care what they thought as he spent weeks at a time on his personal paradise, sleeping under his boat, sometimes eating whatever washed ashore, sketching and painting the natural surroundings and the animals that became his friends.

This book tells the story of Walter Anderson who loved to create art. He lived in Mississippi and would go to an island to paint. He wrote about what he experienced on Horn island and would draw and paint the animal friends he made on the island. Walter Anderson also had a room that was filled with art. There is a theme of adventure and dedication to doing what one loves to do. The book has well done and beautiful illustrations that make the book stand out. This would be a great book for 2nd and 3rd graders. ( )

This book is a biography of the painter Walter Anderson. It tells of how he lived and painted in his adult life. He loved going to an island to be alone and paint, even though he had to row 12 miles to get there. The book is illustrated with lovely watercolors which is apt, because Anderson primarily painted in watercolor.

Walter Anderson a famous artist who was famous for his watercolor creations. This book would be a good opportunity for children to learn who Walter Anderson is. This could be a good book to use when discussing and or learning about art. Since Walter was more famous for his watercolor paintings, this book could really help children see examples of watercolors and other art he had done.

During his frequent visits along to Horn Island, Walter Anderson created many beautiful paintings and other art. He often interacted with the animals there, getting close to them and their homes to get a better look. There is evidence of research in the bibliography at the back of the book as well as the plethora of facts sprinkled throughout the story of Walter Anderson's life.
