Book Overview

★"A tender testament to the healing power of art."--Booklist, starred review

In this heartwarming picture book, a girl and her mama discover joy and friendship through the art of Bob Ross and his happy little trees.

Rima and her mama have moved far across the world to a new home. Now, everything feels dark and gray, and Mama doesn't smile like she used to.

But when Rima discovers the painter on television, everything changes. His soft voice and crunching brush inspire Rima to create art. And soon, Rima and Mama paint their own world in their new home.

Filled with gorgeous and playful illustrations, this story celebrates the transformative power of creativity. Perfect for little artists, anyone who has ever felt out of place, and fans of the talented Bob Ross!
