Based on an unrhymed manuscript and sketches discovered in 2013, this

book is like a visit to a museum—with a horse as your guide!

Explore how different artists have seen horses, and maybe even find a

new way of looking at them yourself. Discover full-color photographic

art reproductions of pieces by Picasso, George Stubbs, Rosa Bonheur,

Alexander Calder, Jacob Lawrence, Deborah Butterfield, Franz Marc,

Jackson Pollock, and many others—all of which feature a horse! Young

readers will find themselves delightfully transported by the engaging

equines as they learn about the creative process and how to see art in

new ways.

Taking inspiration from Dr. Seuss’s original

sketches, acclaimed illustrator Andrew Joyner has created a look that is

both subtly Seussian and wholly his own. His whimsical illustrations

are combined throughout with "real-life" art. Cameo appearances by

classic Dr. Seuss characters (among them the Cat in the Hat, the Grinch,

and Horton the Elephant) make Dr. Seuss’s Horse Museum a

playful picture book that is totally unique. Ideal for home or classroom

use, it encourages critical thinking and makes a great gift for Seuss

fans, artists, and horse lovers of all ages.
