Six starred reviews for New York Times bestselling artist Raúl Colón's wordless picture book about a visit to the museum and the power of art and imagination, which "hums with and jubilation" (The Horn Book, starred review).
After passing a city museum many times, a boy finally decides to go in. He passes wall after wall of artwork until he sees a painting that makes him stop and ponder. Before long the painting comes to life and an afternoon of adventure and discovery unfolds, changing how he sees the world ever after.
