The Noisy Paint Box by Barb Rosenstock illustrated by Mary Grandpre*

"The Colors and Sounds of Kandinsky's Abstract Art"
Ms. Rosenstock is amazing.  She created a very interesting story via dialogue and carefully selected true events.
Vasily Kandinsky started revolution in the art world with by painting abstractly.
More information about him is in the back along with prints of his actual work.
Mr. Kandinsky also had a genetic condition called synesthesia which allowed him to hear colors and see sounds in color.
Strategies: synthesizing, main idea, theme
*Highly recommend.
