The family were struggling Polish immigrants, and despite Keats's obvious talent, his father worried that Ezra's dream of being an artist was an unrealistic one. But Ezra was determined. By high school he was winning prizes and scholarships. Later, jobs followed with the WPA (Works Progress Administration) and Marvel comics. But it was many years before Keats's greatest dream was realized and he had the opportunity to write and illustrate his own book. For more than two decades, Ezra had kept pinned to his wall a series of photographs of an adorable African American child. In Keats's hands, the boy morphed into Peter, a boy in a red snowsuit, out enjoying the pristine snow; the book became The Snowy Day, winner of the Caldecott Medal, the first mainstream book to feature an African American child. It was also the first of many books featuring Peter and the children of his -- and Keats's -- neighborhood. 000771856 5211_ $$aAges 7-10. 000771856 60010 $$aKeats, Ezra Jack$$vJuvenile literature. 000771856 60010 $$aKeats, Ezra Jack.$$tSnowy day. 000771856 650_0 $$aAuthors, American$$vBiography$$vJuvenile literature. 000771856 650_0 $$aIllustrators$$zUnited States$$vBiography$$vJuvenile literature. 000771856 650_0 $$aChildren's literature$$xAuthorship$$vJuvenile literature. 000771856 650_0 $$aChildren's poetry, American. 000771856 650_1 $$aAuthors, American$$vBiography. 000771856 650_1 $$aIllustrators$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000771856 650_1 $$aChildren's literature$$xAuthorship. 000771856 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 000771856 7001_ $$aJohnson, Steve,$$d1960-$$eillustrator. 000771856 7001_ $$aFancher, Lou,$$eillustrator. 000771856 85200 $$bcmc$$hPS3561.E25243$$iZ83$$i2016 000771856 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:771856$$pGLOBAL_SET 000771856 980__ $$aBIB 000771856 980__ $$aBOOK
