Book Reviews of Discovering Great Artists: Hands-On Art for Children in the Styles of the Great Masters (Bright Ideas for Learning)

Book Review: Disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars

I have to agree with the other people who posted about the pictures in the book. If they were in color, this book would be a masterpiece. But as it is, the black and white really takes away from the art. You cannot ask a child to look at a black and white picture and then try to recreate the work. It has good information on the artists and the methods used, but other than that I would NOT recommend this book to anyone.
