With paintings by Frida Kahlo, Henri Rousseau, L.S Lowry and many more, this playful search-and-find book encourages readers to examine each painting and to explain, very simply, what is happening in the pictures.Who's in the Picture? has a gallery of images at the end of the book giving further details about each painting, including where the original artwork can be viewed.

Great boutique bookstore with superb customer service from the owner who obviously loves books. My experience earlier today shows just how bookstores like paradox can thrive in a world dominated by corporates. If you need a book for a present or just need to find a book to read for pleasure, you won't go wrong by dropping into paradox. Thanks for the book recommendation.

This is a lovely little bookshop and we have spent much here; the staff are lovely and very helpful. The owner, however, has never struck me this way. Take this afternoon for example. I'm searching for a great etymological reference book for my classroom and I ask the owner if she might have one on her shelf. She checks and there was nothing even close. When I asked if it would be possible to order one in, I was shocked to hear her retort, "Well, can't you just google up the word?" On so many levels was this an unexpected reply! On doing a study in any subject, we offer our students the vocabulary and the origin of the word in order to better understand their subject. I realize my request was not at all what she wants to help me with so I thank her and start to leave, to which she then grudgingly insists on looking up something on her computer only to tell me that I need to do the research because there are 1000s of books, etc, and she can't order one in because of supply chain issues, etc. Obviously, this isn't a problem for Amazon so I walk home contemplating the paradox of ever buying a book at Paradox.
