Mimi's Dada Catifesto
Mimi is an artistic cat in need of a human. But for a cat like her, with the soul of an artist, only an artist will do. Mr. Dada is a human who believes that art can be anything, and that anything can be art. And for a human like him, with the soul of a Dadaist, only an artistic pet will do. Sometimes, though, it takes a while for humans to notice things that have been right in front of them all along. So it is a good thing that Mimi is loud, and silly, and surprising, and bold. Mimi is a Dada cat, through and through.
This charming story about staying true to yourself sparkles with playful prose and stunning mixed media illustrations while introducing readers to the Dadaist art movement. Includes author's note, list of books and websites, and index.
