The Magic Horses of Beanie Land is a story about four horses that help dreaming children cross the Night Sea. This ancient story of crossing the starry night sky to discover a utopian world of little people is the core of the artistic imagination, and it can be shared with children.

The storyline is based on published studies by the author about the star wisdom of ancient Egypt, early China, and the Navajo Indians. The plot centers on dreaming children who learn to use the Little Dipper and the Big Dipper to find Polaris, the North Star. The children also learn how to overcome scary dreams. This is accomplished through four magical horses, who guide the children to Beanie Land, a magic kingdom at the top of Fudge Mountain.

This picture-book for children is also a unique introduction to the timeless paintings of prominent female and male artists during the 16th to the 20th centuries. Using the pictorial index, an adult can easily guide a child through these masterpieces. These Public Domain paintings express the meaning of ancient star wisdom, and that cosmic knowledge may be the essence of the artist's creativity, as well as the child's.

The picture book of great paintings is in color to compliment the artistic creativity of Rosa Bonheur, Vincent Van Gogh, Thérèse Schwartze, Vassily Kandinsky, Louisa Marchioness, Théodore Géricault, Franz Marc, Robert Delaunay, William Blake, Shibata Zeshin, and other painters.
