The Little Book of St. Petersburg Masterpieces

This book is the perfect gift for children and adults who have experienced or would like to visit St. Petersburg, Florida. It is a must for tourists and residents of this lovely historic West Coast Florida City. The artwork and interesting facts make this publication so much more than a coloring book. The rich history of the architecture and arts of the city are represented in original sketches showing the blending of man and nature. Exclusive to this book, there is space among its seventy pages and thirty-one featured landmarks for the reader to sketch some memories of each place. The wonderfully rendered book is a veritable guide to the unique architecture of buildings, such as the first Mediterranean Revival Style open air post office, the Don Cesar Hotel and the St. Petersburg Yacht Club, Florida's oldest yacht club. For fun, look for the friendly gecko in each of the sketches. Written by an elementary school teacher and illustrated by an elementary school art teacher, the creation of this book was inspired by the realization that there is no other that shows St. Petersburg in this way. This book is a perfect addition to any library.
