Now it's time for Gyo's story to be told-- a story of artistic talent that refused to be constrained by rules or expectations. Growing up quiet and lonely at the beginning of the twentieth century, Gyo learned from her relatives the ways in which both women and Japanese people lacked opportunity. Her teachers and family believed in her and sent her to art school and later Japan, where her talent flourished. But while Gyo's career grew and led her to work for Walt Disney Studios, World War II began, and with it, her family's internment. But Gyo never stopped fighting-- for herself, her vision, her family and her readers-- and later wrote and illustrated the first children's book to feature children of different races interacting together. This luminous new book beautifully and openly touches on Gyo's difficult experiences and growth. Through Julie Morstad's exquisite illustrations, alternating between striking black-and-white linework and lush colour, and Kyo Maclear's artful and accessible writing, the story of this cherished figure is told at last."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C197886</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C197886</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maclear, Kyo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/197886195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How Gyo Fujikawa Drew the Way</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781101918593/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Operatic]]></title><description><![CDATA[When Charlie is tasked to find her perfect song for a music class assignment, she discovers the music of Maria Callas, and tries to follow the singer's example in life regarding her best friends and Emile, her crush.]]></description><link>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C185644</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C185644</guid><category><![CDATA[GRAPHIC_NOVEL]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maclear, Kyo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/185644195</comments><format>GRAPHIC_NOVEL</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781554989720/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Birds Art Life]]></title><description><![CDATA[In 2012, Kyo Maclear met a local Toronto musician with an equally captivating side passion - he had recently lost his heart to birds. Curious about what prompted this young urban artist to suddenly embrace nature, Kyo decides to follow him for a year and find out. This memoir celebrates the particular madness of loving and chasing after birds in a big city. Intimate and philosophical, moving with ease between the granular and the grand view, it celebrates the creative and liberating effects of keeping your eyes and ears wide open, and explores what happens when you apply the core lessons of birding to other aspects of life. In one sense, this is a book about disconnection - how our passions can buckle under the demands and emotions of daily life - and about reconnection: how the act of seeking passion and beauty in small ways can lead us to discover our most satisfying life. On a deeper level, it takes up the questions of how we are shaped and nurtured by our parallel passions, and how we might come to cherish not only the world's pristine natural places but also the blemished urban spaces where most of us live. Follow two artists on a yearlong adventure that is at once a meditation on the nature of creativity and a quest for a good and meaningful life. Kyo Maclear is a novelist, essayist and children's author. She was born in London, England and moved to Toronto at the age of four. She is the author of two novels for adults, The Letter Opener and Stray Love, and numerous books for children, including Julia, Child and The Good Little Book. Kyo lives in Toronto.]]></description><link>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C121166</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C121166</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maclear, Kyo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/121166195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780385687515/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Unearthing]]></title><description><![CDATA["For readers of Crying in H Mart and Wintering, an unforgettable memoir about a family secret revealed by a DNA test, the lessons learned in its aftermath, and the indelible power of love. Three months after Kyo Maclear's father dies in December 2018, she gets the results of a DNA test showing that she and the father who raised her are not biologically related. Suddenly Maclear becomes a detective in her own life, unravelling a family mystery piece by piece, and assembling the story of her biological father. Along the way, larger questions arise: what exactly is kinship? And what does it mean to be a family? Thoughtful in its reflections on race and lineage, unflinching in its insights on grief and loyalty, Unearthing is a captivating and propulsive story of inheritance that goes beyond heredity. What gets planted, and what gets buried? What role does storytelling play in unearthing the past and making sense of a life? Can the humble act of tending a garden provide common ground for an inquisitive daughter and her complicated mother? As it seeks to answer these questions, Unearthing bursts with the very love it seeks to understand."-- Publisher's website.]]></description><link>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C491539</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C491539</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maclear, Kyo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/491539195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Story of Tangled Love and Family Secrets</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781039006706/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Story Boat]]></title><description><![CDATA[When you have to leave behind almost everything you know, where can you call home? Sometimes home is simply where we are: here. A imaginative, lyrical, unforgettable picture book about the migrant experience through a child's eyes. When a little girl and her younger brother are forced along with their family to flee the home they've always known, they must learn to make a new home for themselves -- wherever they are. And sometimes the smallest things -- a cup, a blanket, a lamp, a flower, a story -- can become a port of hope in a terrible storm. As the refugees travel onward toward an uncertain future, they are buoyed up by their hopes, dreams and the stories they tell -- a story that will carry them perpetually forward. This timely, sensitively told story, written by multiple award-winner Kyo Maclear and illustrated by Sendak Fellowship recipient Rashin Kheiriyeh, introduces very young readers in a gentle, non-frightening and ultimately hopeful way to the current refugee crisis.]]></description><link>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C206604</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C206604</guid><category><![CDATA[PICTURE_BOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maclear, Kyo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/206604195</comments><format>PICTURE_BOOK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735263598/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Good Little Book]]></title><description><![CDATA["While banished to a dusty study one day "to think things over", a boy pulls a book off a shelf and with great reluctance begins to read.

Abandoned as an infant, Marcel is haunted by vague memories of his bohemian mother, and is desperate to know who his real parents are. When Oliver is promoted to foreign correspondent, he leaves Marcel in the care of his ill-equipped friends, including the beautiful Pippa. The world is being swept by a wave of liberation?coups, revolutions and the end of colonialism. While Oliver rushes toward the action, Marcel is set adrift in swinging London, a city of magic?and a city where he can never quite fit in. Just when it seems they will never be reunited, Marcel is sent to join Oliver in Vietnam. But by the summer of 1963, the war is escalating, and Oliver is finally overwhelmed by his doomed love for Pippa. When Marcel eventually uncovers the shattering truth about his mother, his entire world is rearranged. Now, as his fiftieth birthday approaches, Marcel is asked to take care of his friend?s eleven-year-old daughter, Iris. Prodded by her sharp-eyed company, he reflects on his own bittersweet childhood and the experiences that have shaped his present. Stray Love is beautifully illustrated with original drawings by noted Toronto artist/filmmaker Heather Frise"--Amazon.ca.]]></description><link>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C93</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S195C93</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Maclear, Kyo]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://samepagesspl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/93195</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781443408592/MC.GIF&amp;client=parlns&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Virginia Wolf]]></title><description><![CDATA[Vanessa's sister, Virginia, is in a "wolfish" mood -- growling, howling and acting very strange.
