Homer Henry Hudson's Curio Museum

The illustrations are so incredibly wonderful!

Some picture books seem better for grown ups than for children and I'm tempted to put Homer Henry Hudson's Curio Museum in that category as it is such a reminder to keep our sense of adventure alive. But kids will enjoy it too with much to explore in the illustrations and a character with lots of ... well ... character to follow.

Gorgeously illustrated story of a delightfully eccentric bulldog, caretaker of Homer Henry Hudson's Curio Museum. The adventures of the great explorer, Homer Henry Hudson, are revealed as the caretaker takes us through his favorite displays. The detailed illustrations will be pored over by kids and adults alike. The glimpses of many other displays throughout the book and on the endpapers fueled my child to make up his own stories. This is a book that we'll return to again and again, and a rich source of inspiration for kids.

A heartwarming story with completely magical drawings that you'll find yourself lost in, this book is an instant classic. As Homer Henry Hudson takes you through his collection of treasures and experiences, you find yourself wanting to share this book with all the explorers and would be explorers you know. It seems the biggest treasure in the museum is not the one that Homer Henry Hudson thinks, it's this book itself.A beautiful book with a charming story. It's great for children and adults.

Thinking back to my own childhood, the books I loved most were those with intricate illustrations. As I opened Homer Henry Hudson's Curio Museum I was transported back to my childhood, remembering nights where I laid awake in bed studying each page of my favorite picture books. I'm pretty sure this book will serve that purpose for my kids, which is one of the highest compliments I could pay it.

Pre-ordered this book because I was familiar with Zack Rock's work! I was not disappointed!!! Zack is a wonderful artist, and has now proven himself a great story teller as well! Can wait to see where Homer goes next. Keep up the good work, Zack!!

What a delight! Each page is so full of detail that you will find yourself looking through this book many times. I loved the story; it is very charming. It should satisfy grown-ups as well as children.

An invitation to explore your local, familiar world and then the wider world. The book gentling reveals that the things that interest you and your preferences are important. Honoring them leads to growth.
