When he moved to Rhode Islands he had noticed that in his dads parents house there weren't any pictures of him, only pictures of his dads sister. At the dinner table he had asked why there where no pictures of his dad. They didn't reply so Robert new something was wrong. He had noticed that his cousin was very strange. He didn't talk much and spend most of the day in his room, and when Robert went on a walk with him he was always looking at something. After a while Robert had found out that he was drawing the hole time. He was very shy of his work so no one really knew about his work.

I really like this book so far. I thought it would be boring at first but now that i read allot i like it. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys painting and drawing.
