f you’ve seen or read the children’s books, Fire on the Mountain by Jane Kurtz or Talkin’ About Bessie: The Story of Aviator Elizabeth Coleman by Nikki Grimes, you have seen the work of famed children’s book illustrator, E.B. Lewis. He has illustrated more than 65 books, and has won the Coretta Scott King Award and the Caldecott Medal. Mr. Lewis is also an educator and presents, and teaches classes and workshops at schools all over the nation. Recently, he visited Plantersville Elementary School in Georgetown to promote literacy. That visit led to him adopting the school. In the coming months, he will spend time there working with administrators, teachers and students. Bhakti Larry Hough interviews Mr. Lewis on today’s edition of Insight, which airs at 10 a.m., 7 p.m. and midnight.
