Customer Reviews

Awesome art book for little ones!!

As an art lover I was so excited to see this book and the others in the series. This one is my favorite, not only because I LOVE Monet, but because the rhymes are well written and go great with the paintings!! This book is a great way to share your love of art with little ones. This is my favorite baby gift to give at showers!! My four year old still gets it out and asks about the paintings and we try to read it together!!!

One of the best in the MiniMasters Series

This book is wonderful. The sentences are short and sweet and they rhyme, which catches my little boy's attention. This is one of his bedtime books. Other books in the MiniMaster Series that are just as good are "Quite Time with Cassatt" and "Sharing with Renior". We have all of the books in the series and these three are our favorites.

Very Cute!

A cute book with great pictures, great rhymes, and it feels good to know that it is educational too. Never too early to appreciate great art!

Excellent Introduction to Art

My daughter is 17 months old and loves this series of books. The artwork is representative of the original work and the words do a great job of telling a story for each picture in a descriptive way without "squashing creativity" for the reader.

Lovely, imaginative book

This book not only features Monet's beautiful paintings but the words are far above the quality usual found in children's books. It is enjoyable for adults as they share the artistic experience with their children. My eight month old baby loves it. It is one of her favorite books. I'm sure older children would appreciate it too. It's one of those books that parents won't mind reading again and again.
