This title would be a great one for a child and adult to spend time with together, although some children might also enjoy this book on their own. The author and illustrator know their Met, the world famous museum located in Manhattan. The text is informative and the illustrations are intricately detailed.

Children will become familiar with the many treasures of the iconic museum as they visit the galleries with Stevie, the young girl who has gotten lost. There are many search and find activities within these pages, along with some questions to think about.

The end of the book includes additional information about some of the art works that are in the Met.

This title provides an excellent resource for (budding) art lovers.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title. All opinions are my own.

The Met is one of my favorite museums in the world, and this book did not disappoint! It's MUCH better than your standard "where's Waldo" because you get to learn about art history as you wander through the different galleries with Stevie! It's hilarious how much stuff Stevie's brother Alfie "dropped" all around the museum, from his teddy to his scarf! I think kids would really enjoy this book. At the end of the book, there's also a little bit about the different kinds of art that the museum exhibits. Love this book!

This is such a wonderful book with so much to offer! Appropriate for middle grades, the story follows a young girl as she gets separated from her family and makes her way to their designated meeting point in the museum. Along the way she find herself moving through the galleries and collecting belongings her brother seemed to have lost along the way.

This is so richly detailed! Readers can spend hours poring over each illustration, looking at all the objects and stories within. It's a wonderful introduction to the Met, and would make a great souvenir of a day there as well. The gallery descriptions at the end were a fascinating bonus too! I was also glad to see a genuinely diverse mix of people depicted on the page.

Many thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review!
