About the Book
Eisha’s mother is a ceramic artist who teaches Eisha how to make a special shape out of a piece of clay. The shape reminds Eisha of her father, of the ocean, of a lemon. After a day of running errands in their neighborhood, Eisha goes to touch the hardened shape and it shatters. Eisha is left with a sense of loss, but by learning how to make something new from what is left behind, she also learns how to heal.
This book is available for purchase from the Carnegie Museum of Art Store.
