MAXWELL NEWHOUSE is a highly accomplished folk artist whose work has been widely exhibited in galleries across Canada. He has illustrated the critically acclaimed The RCMP Musical Ride, written by the artist himself, as well as Laura Secord: A Story of Courage, Emily Carr: At the Edge of the World, Let’s Go for a Ride – a finalist for the Governor General’s Literary Award in Children’s Illustration – and The House That Max Built.
PRAISE FOR THE HOUSE THAT MAX BUILT:
“Warmly rendered folk-art-style oil paintings show the house coming
together over time. Varied perspectives focus on the people as much
as on the work they do, reinforcing the importance of teamwork and
specialization.”
— School Library Journal
“Children intrigued by construction will enjoy the level of detail,
which includes a look at a variety as well as the exploits of Max’s
troubleseeking terrier. Fresh and informative.”
— Booklist
