Illustrated by
Lane Smith.
A boy waiting for a friend in Manhattan asks a passerby, "Have you seen Art?" She assumes he means the newly renovated Museum of Modern Art and sends him there. The book's extra-wide pages become museum walls featuring crisply reproduced masterworks by Picasso, Warhol, etc., which the sketchlike boy drinks in. An endnote details the pieces pictured.
