Publisher's Synopsis
An engaging child-centred introduction to Auguste Rodin, one of the best known artists of all time. This bright and cheerful full-colour picture book begins in 1906, when the court dancers in the Cambodian royal palace were abuzz with news of a trip to France for the Colonial Exhibition. Little Sap, a poor country girl who joined the dance troupe to give her family a better life, is apprehensive about traveling. The young artist Auguste Rodin insists on sketching the dancers, especially Little Sap. As Rodin's pencil sweeps across his paper, Little Sap's worries melt away.
