Description
The book provides the kinds of questions a child might ask about the paintings, then gives straightforward answers. Questions such as:
- Who are the people in this painting?
- Why has the artist used those colors?
- How did the artist choose what to paint?
- …and much more
The book inspires art appreciation and reveals that the simplest questions can be among the most pertinent. Having read through this enjoyable book with children, and contemplated the colorful illustrations, every adult will discover that they themselves have become art-educated and more aware of the conversations with kids that great art can inspire. Future discussions about great art will become easier and more spontaneous.
Color-coded tabs on the pages let adults flip to sections appropriate to the ages of their children (5-7 years, 8-10 years, 11-13+ years).
