I would love to chase Vermeer. In fact I have once when I was in the Louvre and the wing that had the Vermeers was locked. I shook the gate much to the chagrin of the guards. While I was in London at Victoria Station waiting for a train to Waterloo Station would which take me to Paris, I purchased Girl with a Pearl Earring. It was a good read, but I have found another book which I adore even more.
Blue Balliett is a children's author and she writes the most wonderful art adventure books ever. Her first Chasing Vermeer teaches children that it's okay to enjoy art and math and music and everything else. It's wonderful and I highly suggest that people read it young and old alike.
What children's book have you discovered recently that made you smile?
