I, Juan de Pareja
We just finished our book. What a wonderful story that gave life to real history. We met famous artists of the 17th century, Ruebens, Velasquez, and Pereja. We looked at their art as we read this historical fiction. We learned about early Spain and its court, the Plague, Gypsies, art history, Rome, slavery, love, tragedy, character, humility and humanity. I never realized learning about history could be so enjoyable.
