'Beautiful' THE TIMES, Children's Book of the Week'Lyrical, magical, tender and true, and deeply mysterious' MICHAEL MORPURGO'Unforgettable' PHILLIP PULLMAN __________ Long, long ago, a boy lies confined by sickness to his windowless bedchambers. He can never breathe fresh air or feel the warmth of the sun on his skin, so his doting father summons a painter to embellish his rooms with beautiful murals. Before long, the walls come alive with a vibrant world-a kaleidoscope of sherherds and lovers, criss-crossed by armies and pirate ships.Can the artist show this child the richness and beauty of life with nothing but paints and brushes?
