Verde, Susan The Museum, PICTURE BOOK. Abrams Books for Young Readers, 2013. $16.95. Content: G.
How do you feel when you see a glorious painting in an art museum? What do you think the artist was trying to tell you when she sculpted her masterpiece? With rhyming narration, the reader is led through the thoughts and feelings of the museum visitor as she wanders through hallways and rooms of artwork. The artwork is high quality and the effect of the museum visitor’s response to the artwork is well demonstrated. The rhyming is occasionally ineffectual, but the book as a whole is an effective introduction for children on art purpose, interpretation, and individual response.
EL- ADVISABLE. Reviewed by: Shay, School Librarian
