This new coloring book offers a hands-on look at St. Louis's
architectural history.
St. Louis is a kaleidoscope of architecture, with beautiful, strange,
and fascinating structures of every size and shape, ranging from the
city's earliest days to the twenty-first century. In Coloring St.
Louis, readers will find new illustrations of more than thirty St.
Louis structures--all ready to color however you please. The book
highlights a variety of buildings, including famed landmarks like the
Fox Theatre and City Museum, nineteenth-century homes and new
high-rises, schools, train stations, breweries, and skyscrapers.
Entertaining explanatory text accompanies each drawing, so readers can
discover the structures' significance as they color away. This book is a
companion to a new interactive exhibit at the Missouri History Museum
where visitors learn the stories of local structures in a way they never
have before--by coloring them, right on the walls of the museum.
Coloring St. Louis lets readers young and old bring an architectural
tour home with them and turn it into a hands-on expression of personal
imagination.
