review 1: I really liked this book, a girl going through an art museum and talking about how the art makes her feel. The story is told in verse and like the illustrations by the magnificent Peter H.

review 2: Lots of pluses in this one: rhyming text that works well in most cases; linking art with evocative emotions; challenging creativity and involvement; presentation of an art museum as an interactive experience.My frustration is that the embedded art alludes to iconic works by well-known masters, but there
... moreis no back matter or other reference chart to help young readers identify and learn more about them. Adults who share the book would appreciate that, too, in my opinion. less
