Produktbeschreibungen
From Booklist
Gr. 4-6. One Sunday morning, visitors to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden find a lion, a leopard, and a wolf nervously sitting together. Police, professors, and bystanders cannot imagine where the animals came from, but two children recognize the beasts as being from Edward Hicks' painting The Peaceable Kingdom, which hangs in the Brooklyn Museum. The children and grown-ups escort the animals back, trying to understand why they came out of the painting. Not a traditional young children's picture book, this is partly fable and partly art appreciation, and the questions it poses (for example, Why has peace not yet come to America?) will be best understood by middle-graders, especially those able to grasp the story's satire. Mary Harris Veeder
From Kirkus Reviews
A curious, rather long fable about three animals (a lion, a leopard, and a wolf) who come out of Edward Hicks's painting of The Peaceable Kingdom in the Brooklyn Museum and cause a stir in the nearby botanical garden. While the animals huddle together, wide-eyed, a seven-year-old observes that ``They're beautiful and they're scared....We have to help them,'' but adults are terrified and the police prepare to shoot. The mayor, the press, and famous professors get into the debate about what to do; no one knows what to make of these creatures, which are evidently not predatory. Finally, after a little boy who has seen the animals in the museum recognizes them, the children from the painting are fetched to take the animals back into it. The truants are ready, but sad; they had thought that surely by now the world, too, would be peaceable. Not yet--but everyone is moved by their tears. An intriguing entr‚e into both the Quaker painter's art and its subject. Olbinski's spare, classically constructed settings harmonize nicely with his renderings of Hicks's figures. Reproduction of the painting and list of Hicks's 18 other variations on it; note. (Picture book. 5-11) -- Copyright ©1994, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.

Such a great introduction to art for kids
17. Januar 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
We loved this book - full disclosure, we live in Brooklyn and combined a reading of the book with a trip to the Brooklyn Museum and the artwork featured in the book, so it's great for Brooklynites in particular, but the book points out that there are Peaceable Kingdom paintings all over the country, so it's a great combination book/art museum trip idea. It really brings the painting to life and makes it seem real. Also a gorgeously illustrated book.
