About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels like their unique quirks or unconventional hobbies do not fit in with the crowd. It is a wonderful tool for children who are artistic and need to see how their specific talents can have a practical, heroic impact on their community. The story follows Pauline, a hen who paints famous masterpieces on her eggs. When a museum heist occurs, her artistic eye becomes the key to solving the mystery. This book is ideal for the 4 to 8 age range, blending a funny animal story with a sophisticated introduction to art history. It teaches that being different is not just okay, it is a superpower. Parents will appreciate the way it builds self-confidence while surreptitiously teaching children about famous artists and historical styles.
