From the author of 'The Boy Who Bit Picasso', this is an entertaining text, narrated by the young Tony, who introduces Miró, a quiet, kind and smartly dressed man. He 'dreamed when he was awake' and painted wonderfully strange worlds filled with magical animals. The book is beautifully illustrated with some of Miró's finest works, as well as evocative archive photography by Lee Miller and specially commissioned artworks by children done in the style of Miró.
