This is a two book task.

Book 2 – I read Little Pretty Things by Lori Rader-Day
Required: Post the inspiration image(s) and explain the connection to the titles you chose.
I think Mary Cassatt’s painting of two little kids playing in the sand could be someone’s grandchildren and, thus, titled Spider Woman’s Granddaughters. Also, they are pretty cute so I believe Little Pretty Things works as a painting title too.
