Drawing From Memory by Allen Say

Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?


In this autobiography, Allen lives in Japan during World War II. His father discourages him from drawing, but Allen never gives up. He gets a scholarship to a school for arts, all the time having to get top grades. This is a wonderfully written, amazing story. I would definitely recommend it, especially to artists, because IT IS AWESOME!
