Overview
★ "An accessible and inspiring mini-biography, delightfully illustrated." ―Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
IBPA Book Award - Gold Winner
Northern Lights Book Award Winner
Christianity Today Award of Merit Winner
One of Kirkus Reviews' Best Indie Books of 2025
Shortlisted for "Reading the West" Book Award
Just in time for the 75th anniversary of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe comes Painting Wonder, an enchanting picture book biography about the artist whose illustrations brought the worlds of C.S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien to life.
Young Pauline Baynes lives in India, a land of towering mountains, sparkling lakes, and bright flowers. She even has a pet monkey that joins her for tea.
Then her life takes a turn, and Pauline is sent to dreary England. Books bring light and color to her world, so she sets out to paint the stories she loves. Years later, two iconic authors see her paintings and know she's the illustrator for their stories―of fire-breathing dragons, towering giants, a golden lion, and four brave children.
Includes free audiobook streaming via QR code on the back of book.
