by Wendy Ewald

Composition and exercisesPhotographyEnglish languageStudy and teaching (Elementary)

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.
