Isadora was a professional ballet dancer before an injury led to a change of careers. Several of Isadora’s books have been selected by Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.
The more than 150 children's books Isadora has written and illustrated span a wide variety of topics, including ballet and dance, American urban culture and family life, life in Africa, and traditional fairy tales. Ben's Trumpet was adapted to video and also translated into a ballet by the Boston ballet company BalletRox in 2009.
She is most famous for the book Ben's Trumpet, runner-up for the 1980 Caldecott Medal, or Caldecott Honor Book, and winner of the Boston Globe-Horn Book honor. Rachel Isadora (born 1953) is an American illustrator, children's book author, specializing in picture books, and painter.
