I'd Like the Goo-Gen-Heim

Meet Andy, an inquisitive young boy who wanders away from his napping father in Central Park to discover a sight on Fifth Avenue unlike any he has seen before. Taken in by the impressive shape of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Andy asks a passerby what this beautiful building could be and sounds out for himself, "Goo-Gen-Heim." Once inside, he discovers the seemingly endless ramps filled with artworks by Kandinsky, Léger, Rouault, and Picasso. First published in 1970, this timeless introduction to modern art for young readers is back in a new edition, with original text and illustrations by A. C. Hollingsworth.
