Wyeth's Something Beautiful really is a beautiful book. Chris K. Soentpiet's realistic pictures show a young girl's search for something beautiful in her inner city world. In her search she learns how others are able to find beauty in spite of the hard life and harsh surroundings of the city.This was a fantastic way to introduce the idea of beauty in simple things: a piece of fruit, a smooth stone, a smile and helping others. I hope to reintroduce this book as my children grow and are able to grasp the idea of beauty on different levels.
