The Hare With the Pearl Earring opens with the character, Henny Hare who is a model and patron of the arts. Blending fantasy with art history, the story goes on to introduce young readers to an array of animal artists whose names not only sound like, but  also hint at their real-world counterparts. In addition to full-color illustrations and rhyming text, the interactive icons add to the reading experience by revealing information about each artist and their work. I would highly recommend this lively tale for the budding art enthusiasts and their parents as well.
