| Summary |
"In this colorful and exuberant collection, more than twenty children's book artists through text and illustration - most specially created for this book - offer their thoughts about art and the muse that inspires their work. For some, parents and friends encouraged their efforts; for others, a fertile imagination or a desire to entertain led them to create exciting worlds on canvas or paper."--BOOK JACKET. "With page after page of different art styles, techniques, and interpretations, this book offers parents, librarians, and teachers a unique opportunity to talk about art with children in a thoughtful yet fun way. To help spark a dialogue, simple concepts and ideas for activities are provided - great for both one-on-one and group discussion."--BOOK JACKET |
