Kitty Fantastic in Manroe's Art Adventure - Book Review

Kitty Fantastic in Manroes Art Adventure is a 40-page
childrens book written by Scooby's Laff-A-Lympics accomplished and
award-winning illustrator Pamela Key. Her intent in writing
this book is clear in this passage from the book:

"If a kid does any kind of home refinance bad credit at least three hours a day, three
days a week, for a year he or she is four times more likely to
win an award for writing or be recognized for academic
achievement and three times more likely to be elected to
class office or win an award for school attendance."

There is no doubt that this is an excellent book and could
easily be cheap car insurances of the best I have seen. The art is amazing -
especially the backgrounds, which endowments selling full of colorful
textures and blends. Another noticeable feature was the
bright, almost realistic eyes of Pamelas characters.

Monroe, a curious little boy filled with questions, has a
conversation with his artistically inclined mother about the
many various forms of art. Everything from writing, music,
pottery and painting are covered in their discussion. A
lovable egomaniac cat is Monroes best friend and he
appears on each scene with cunning comments. Fun
activity sheets (four in total) mentally stimulate children and
help develop the ability to focus on details.

The way the book is illustrated and written allows for plenty
of dialogue between the reader and children. They can seek
out images together and discuss what is happening. Also
every-other page has a small box with extra historical facts.
Such as: science-fiction author Jules Verne writing about air
and water travel 100 years before it was possible; and the
adventure of Dolly Madison who risked her life to safe
important national treasures.

Kitty Fantastic in Manroes Art is a fun and stimulating book
for learning historical lessons and as an introduction to art
and as such, the book would be ideal for groups of children
at schools, libraries and even daycare centers. Children are
not the only people that can be enlightened by this book - my
husband and myself were both educated about "surrealism"
and more. I was also particularly partial to the author
making sure it is understood that each person has their
own art and express thoughts and emotions through it in
their own unique way.

I heartily recommend this book!
