I Wanna Take Me a Picture

by Wendy Ewald

Acclaimed photographer Wendy Ewald has worked with children around the world, using photography to enable them to express what they think and feel. I Wanna Take Me a Picture is an accessible and practical guide to getting children involved in photography. It uses basic assignments--self-portraiture, family portraiture, community, and dreams--to teach everything from framing and point of view to how to set up a darkroom and develop film. "Ms. Ewald was one of the first--and remains the most committed--artists to bring photography into the lives of children who have little else."--Taylor Holliday, The Wall Street Journal.
