I, Juan de Pareja

Told through the eyes of the famous artist Velasquez's slave and assistant, this vibrant novel depicts both the beauty and the cruelty of 17th century Spain and tells the story of Juan, who was born a slave and died a respected artist. This historical fiction book won the Newbery Medal in 1966 and its messages of self-improvement, loyalty, and racial equality are current today. Don't know why the publisher hasn't bothered to make the book available in any digital format, but here it is in high-quality Mobi and Epub formats, carefully proofread and formatted by yours truly. Enjoy!
