Wilhelmina Under the Stairs is a middle-grade novel with a grade 4
reading level that lends itself to group readings as well as
individual. The colorful illustrations encourage the listeners and
readers to use their imaginations as they move through this
delightful story which grew from the author's experience at their
weekend home near Lexington, Virginia and her love of classic
animal tales. Although a number of animal adventure stories feature
mice as main characters this story, with its focus on rats, is just
different enough to intrigue young readers, especially girls
between ages 6 and 10. Along with the exciting, suspenseful plot,
Wilhelmina Under the Stairs explores the universal issues of
gaining independence, finding one's place in the world, developing
friendships and romantic relationships, and learning the value of
family and community.

Rachel Kneebone (born 1973, Oxfordshire) is a London-based artist
internationally renowned for her porcelain sculptures that
intricately fuse human, natural and abstract forms to explore
universal themes such as sexual desire, mortality, anguish and
despair. Launched in anticipation of '399 Days', Kneebone's latest
presentation at White Cube, London, in summer 2014, this
publication features works from Kneebone's acclaimed solo
exhibition at Brooklyn Museum in 2012, which included eight of the
artist's works in dialogue with fifteen bronze sculptures by
Auguste Rodin. Featuring a foreword by Catherine Morris and a text
by Ali Smith, this beautifully designed and produced hardback
publication contains over fifty colour reproductions and has been
developed with support from Brooklyn Museum.
