Each volume in this innovative series is devoted to a subject that
every child already knows from personal experience. The works of
art chosen for each book show the many different ways great artists
have perceived and expressed that very subject. Author Colleen
Carroll's engaging, conversational text is filled with
thought-provoking questions and imaginative activities that spark
children's natural curiosity both about the subject of the artwork
and about the way it was created.
This direct, interactive approach to art -- and to the world --
promotes self -exploration, self-discovery, and self-expression. As
it introduces basic artistic concepts, styles, and techniques, it
also provides loads of fun. For children who want to know more
about the artists whose works appear in the book, biographies are
provided at the end, along with suggestions for further reading and
an international list of museums where each artist's works can be
seen. As they begin to understand the multitude of ways that
artists see, children will deepen their appreciation of art, the
world around them, and, most importantly, their own unique
visions.
