 Great new ideas. November 18, 2009

I appreciate the way in which the material was presented. I found a number of great, new ideas to use with my troop. I learned a few things myself. A wonderful resource for any rainy day.

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.
One of the best books I own October 14, 2009

I continually use this book and the ideas within it. I can make a lesson fit my preschool class or my art class of fifteen year olds. The ideas are fresh, fun and engaging.
Excelent! July 22, 2009

Mostly disappointing April 23, 2009

A few of the projects in this book looked like they could potentially be fun, but overall the book is not very visually appealing. If each page had a famous art work in color that the kids could appreciate, and there were some sample kids' creations in color as well that kids and parents could look at, I think it would have made a world of difference. None of the projects really jumped out at me. There are lot of other books that do a much better job of what I expect the author of this book was trying to do. Instead check out the Art Explorers series by Joyce Raimondo or look at some of the Usborne art titles.
