Black Elephant With a Brown Ear (in Alabama) (In Alabama and Other Tales)

"Bill Traylor was born into slavery and worked as a farmer most of his life; in the years between 1939 and 1942, the elderly, untutored black artist made over 1200 paintings on scraps of paper and cardboard. Porte has taken 10 pieces of art, reproduced here in full-color, and has told an imaginative tale for each one....Porte's writings, which are light and folksy in tone, explore a world of possibilities."--School Library Journal.
