Signs of Hope is a picture book biography of groundbreaking artist, teacher, and Catholic nun Corita Kent from critically acclaimed author Mara Rockliff, with stunning full-color art from Caldecott Honor winner Melissa Sweet.
 
Let Corita teach you how to see the world in a whole new way!
 
Sister Corita Kent, the ā€œpop art nun,ā€ burst onto the 1960s art scene with splashes of color and ad slogans transformed into messages of love, hope, peace, and justice. The art world would never be the sameā€”and neither would the young people whose lives she changed.
 
Join Coritaā€™s students as they learn how to look at the world around them through an artistā€™s eyes. With Corita, work is play, imagination means adventure, and there is no line between life and art.
 
Told with joy and energy by award-winning author Mara Rockliff and spectacularly illustrated by two-time Caldecott Honor winner Melissa Sweet, Signs of Hope brings a revolutionary artistā€™s teachingsā€”still fresh, still inspiringā€”to a new generation. As Corita told her students, ā€œBe ready to see what you havenā€™t seen before!ā€
