"Making a Great Exhibition is a book that every art-loving kid (and
parent) will want to have at home. The beautiful illustrations
transform the people who work in a museum into superheroes, who
will inspire the next generation of creatives. With tons of little
details, the book offers endless things for kids to look at and
learn, meaning that the book will grow along with them."--Jessica
Stewart, My Modern Met
"I absolutely love it! I was a big fan of Richard Scarry's What Do
People Do All Day--must have read it one thousand times to my son
when he was little. This seems to take some of that wonderful
spirit, and has just as much charm. Right now, when there are so
many obstacles being thrown in the way of young people getting
involved in the arts, this book could not be more timely. It looks
like just the invitation into the world of art that might make a
real difference. Bravo! It would be great to see one in every
primary school in the country."--Caroline Douglas, Director,
Contemporary Art Society
"I wish I'd had this book when I was a kid! I always wanted my art
to be in a big museum one day but, growing up in a small town, that
just seemed impossible. Making a Great Exhibition is a beautifully
illustrated behind-the-scenes peek at exactly how art makes its way
from an artist's mind to the big white walls of a fancy gallery.
Turns out, there are a lot of people, with some very cool jobs, who
make the magic happen--and any book that shows kids (and parents!)
they can grow up to have a career in the arts is okay by
me!"--Danielle Krysa "The Jealous Curator"
