I especially like the winks at famous paintings in this imaginative artistic story.

This book is awesome! I was looking for something else and this jumped out at me from the shelf. The names are all famous artists, with a canine touch. Arthur Dog is a museum security guard who paints graffiti by night. It's a really cute story with even better illustrations.
There was a superhero in it.
not sure what all the fuss is about with this book. not my favorite.
