From Bilbao to Beijing, from New York to the Netherlands, explore the wonders of 13 extraordinary museums in this “great big” oversized book for readers 8 to 108. Whether you’re visiting Mexico City’s Frida Kahlo Museum, Paris’s treasured Louvre, or New York City’s American Museum of Natural History, you’ll be accompanied by the very best guides: curators, architects, landscape designers, artists . . . but also some more unexpected guests, like the beloved cats of St. Petersburg’s Hermitage, or the guardian of Rome’s Vatican Museums who carries hundreds of keys while making his rounds through the Sistine Chapel and beyond!

Each of the 13 museums is splashed across two colorful double-page spreads: the first is a vivacious illustration of the museums’ architecture by the French artist Benjamin Chaud, bursting with quirky details and inside jokes. A second spread gives life to each museum with abundant cartoonish illustrations and fascinating, fact-filled captions of history, mystery, and more. This beautiful book by author Éva Bensard bubbles over with world renowned masterpieces; a glimpse into the lives and works of dozens of artists, scientists, and other luminaries; intriguing portraits of expert employees; and insider tips for visitors... museums have never seemed so vibrant and exciting..

Sturdy Shelf Brackets
I really like these shelf brackets. They seem very sturdy, which is great for my laundry room shelves over the washer & dryer pair. It's going to be great to FINALLY have shelves for laundry supplies or "buyers' club" household items like 12-packs of paper towels or 36-packs of T.P. I can hardly wait to have my sons install them so I can fill them up!

Nice shelf, install a bit problematic
Color: Dark Walnut, Size: 8.5inch(2PCS)
Nice little shelf, looks great, feels stable enough for my small accent lamp. Two issues: 1. The cutout in the corner is perfect for a cord >>>BUT<<< the plug itself CANNOT fit though that hole. You have to feed the cord through BEFORE INSTALL. So once it’s in, it’s IN. 2. Install seems pretty straight forward but it was not so easy! The rails are too thick for a pencil to go through the screw hole to mark placement. I had to physically hold everything in place and leveled WHILE I drilled. Rather annoying.
