This irreverent introduction to art gives children the confidence
to respond to art on their own terms, and - most importantly - to
have fun with it. Under the playful guidance of Leo, the museum
cat, readers encounter abstract, Surrealist, nude and contemporary
art, ancient sculpture, still lifes and portraits. But instead of
being told facts to memorize, they're equipped with the knowledge
that allows them to come up with their own interpretations of
famous art works. Knowing how symbols work, they'll decipher clues
in Frida Kahlo's self-portrait; understanding Surrealism, they'll
decide for themselves what Joan Miro's abstract doodles are all
about. This book shows that art isn't about knowing the right
answers - it's about having fun, making up your own mind and seeing
things from a different angle. With 46 illustrations
