Coloring St. Louis: A Coloring Book for All Ages - Paperback
by Andrew Wanko (Author), Rori! (Illustrator)
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.Andrew Wanko is a public historian at the Missouri Historical Society and the author of Great River City: How the Mississippi Shaped St. Louis, also published by the Missouri Historical Society Press.
