Laura Vila- Building Manhattan
Wednesday, July 23, 2008 at 3 pm
In-Store

Join us on this summer afternoon for an interactive event suited for children of all ages!
Building Manhattan is a vividly illustrated picture book about the history of the many cultures who came to the island of Manhattan and what they built. It encompasses Manhattan's rich history from its conception as an island of natural beauty with diverse wildlife, to its contemporary diversity of cultures and architecture. Illustrated with vivid and detailed paintings, each page is layered with history that is revealed though rich storytelling.
Laura Vila
pursues whole heartedly the creating of books that magnify the excitement and beauty of illustration and prose. Beyond the words written and the pictures painted, she believe books become doorways to other worlds and experiences for children young and old alike. Children are by nature curious. By illustrating books that foster learning through creative exploration of ideas, facts and fantasy, children may develop richer inner landscapes and ask bigger questions about the world around them.
Laura Vila believes that discovery, imagination and exploration are vital tools for children. She has devoted her publishing career to being involved in projects that not only allow her to explore the versatility of her own artistic skills, but by being involved in projects that expand and broaden the borders of what is considered educational.
