A fun and entertaining book about artists. A "Where's Waldo" search for Van Gogh on each spread and facts about the artists too. Highly recommend this book!
This Where's Waldo style book features artists of varying styles and time periods including OKeefe, Dali, Hokusai, and VanGogh (among others). Includes info on each artist. My daughter and I both enjoyed searching the illustrations for the items listed on each page. As a parent, I appreciated that the back of the book shows where each hidden image can be found.
It is a great, interactive book on art for children. I enjoyed each 2-page spread about different artists, finding the artist and Van Gogh in each spread, and learning more about the artists and their period. All are developmentally appropriate for young ones and entertaining for older folks.
