Synopsis: 
Meet one of history's greatest figures in this adorable board book with an animal twist! 
Famous Meowxican painter Frida Catlo was a pioneer for female artists. She always painted from the heart, even in the face of health problems and personal struggles. With hilarious puns and colorful illustrations, this book brings Frida's legacy to life for babies and parents alike!

Our Thoughts:

This adorable little board book introduces us to infamous Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo, in a fun and animalistic way. 

I love the concept of this series! It gives real information about Frida Kahlo's life, some of which probably isn't too interesting for the babies and toddlers that will have it read to them, but still important. We learn all about her home, her culture, and her hobby as well as major events in her life. 

The play on words makes this extra purrfect! There are so many and it makes it extra fun to emphasize them and see if my little one catches on to the change or not. I do think some of the words are a bit difficult to follow and would make more sense to an adult than a young reader.

I'm looking forward to reading more of the Wild Bios board books for both the reimagining of famous persons and the fun words that are included!
