    CO-737 Bilsky, Rebecca Ellen. [Carta] 1960 Nov. 17, California, USA [para] Candido Portinari, New York, NY. 2 p. [inglês][manuscrito] Mr. Candido Portinari Doubleday, Doran & Company, Inc. Garden City New York Dear Mr. Portinari: Your book is one of the nicest books I’ve seen. My name is Rebecca Bilsky. I go to the University Elementary School. I’m in the fourth grade and I’m nine years old. Your book, “Maria Rosa” (I must say it is just as much Vera Kelsey’s as it is yours) is a wonderful book. My mother says you are a very famous artist in Mexico and the illustrations show it. You did write part of the book didn’t you? When did you start illustrating? I think your illustrations are very nice and interesting like the one of King Momo and “Maria Rosa” sitting in the throne. The whole book is very nice and interesting. In fact I could not even stop reading once I started. I once more congratulate you, and your partner on your wonderful book “Maria Rosa”. Sincerely, Rebecca Bilsky 2
