Book Guide

On a hot, sunny day, a painting of a group of swimmers paddling about in a cool river proves too tempting for Katie during a visit to the art museum, and so she dives straight into the picture. But Katie doesn't just cause a splashshe causes a flood! So while playing with her friends might be fun, Katie has to find a way to stop the water from pouring into the art gallery.

Join Katie on her latest adventure in art history, as five famous Pointillist paintings come alive for her on one summer Sunday afternoon.

Katie's Sunday Afternoon includes reproductions of Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, Bathers at Asnieres, and Entree du port de Honfleur by Georges-Pierre Seurat; Woman Hanging up the Washing by Camille Pissarro; and Portrait of Felix Feneon by Paul Signac.
