It's a snowy day in December, and Clio has just moved from a small town to the big city where her artist father will begin his new job on Monday as a curator in The New City Art Museum. Clio's mother is an army doctor who she hasn't seen in a long time -- and Clio is feeling lost. It seems perfect timing then, that she should make some new and unusual friends as she wanders from room to room in the famous museum. After all, Clio and two millennia of Art have more in common that she could ever have imagined.
