A delightful story which recounts the childhood encounters of Antony Penrose - son of Lee Miller and Roland Penrose - with Joan Miro. Illustrated in colour. Ages: 4 Introduces Miro, a quiet, kind and smartly dressed man, who 'dreamed when he was awake' and painted wonderfully strange worlds filled with magical animals. This book is illustrated with some of Miro's finest works, as well as evocative archive photography by Lee Miller and specially commissioned artworks by children done in the style of Miro.
