Brilliant in color, conception, and execution,
Squeaking of Art brings the
subject of art to the
youngest readers. In this truly
child-oriented guide to art appreciation, ten mice pals visit a museum filled with some of the world's most famous
paintings and talk about what they see.
Each
gallery in the
fantasy museum groups paintings by subject, such as pets or music, or by category, such as portraits or landscapes. From Matisses to Mondrians, van Goghs to Vermeers, there are versions of eighty-five paintings from all eras painted in Wellington's bright and graphic style. Written in a simple yet exuberant way, questions and comments pepper the text and invite children to participate. Part child's-eye view of a museum and part ode to the inspirational power of great masterpieces, this extraordinary picture book lays the foundation for a lifelong love of art by showing how much fun visiting an art museum can be..
