MUSEUM TRIP

A mind-bending and thought provoking picture book. Museums: filled with mysterious magical art and curiosities? Or secrets? And what might happen if a boy suddenly became part of one of the mind-bending exhibits? Join the fun in Museum Trip by Barbara Lehman the author-illustrator of the Caldecott Honor–winning The Red Book. AGES: 4 to 7 AUTHOR: Barbara Lehman has illustrated many books for children including The Red Book which was awarded the Caldecott Honor in 2005. Born in Chicago Barbara attended Pratt Institute in Brooklyn where she earned a BFA in communication design. A full-time illustrator Barbara says Books and art have always held the strongest attraction for me. I have always felt drawn to 'commercial art' because of its ability to reach many people. I like the idea of being part of the media in a meaningful and thoughtful way especially with children as the audience.
