bliss

There is simply nothing like the

remarkable work of M. B. Goffstein.

Here, one of her ethereal paintings graces the

cover of an anniversary issue of The Horn Book.

The former Horn Book editor Ethel Heins

put it perfectly (note, also, that it is she whom

Goffstein so delightfully captured, above):

...the M. B. Goffstein of

Fish for Supper is, blissfully,

"a mistress of understatement."

Thank heaven.
