This beautiful introduction to art and language features some of
the world's most beloved masterpieces as it entices children to
discover art, language, objects, and colors. First pictures, first
words--this familiar and time-proven book concept for young
children is incorporated brilliantly in this multi-lingual art
book. The works of Renoir, Kandinsky, Durer, Rousseau, Franz Marc,
and others are featured in beautiful full-page reproductions.
Opposite each image is a word that helps describe the painting--for
instance "play," "bunny," "horse," "train." The words are presented
in twelve different languages, each with their phonetic
pronunciation. Organized thematically, the book touches on a
child's everyday experience through simple and comforting images
that will invite further investigation: What are the men playing
with? What does the bunny's fur feel like? How many teddy bears do
you see? Together adults and children can explore great works,
planting the seeds for an appreciation of the world's masterpieces
and the words to describe them."
