Great book even for preschoolers

This is a great book. The advantages are that it is large enough format for the reproductions to be good, and the selection of paintings really does have some of the most famous paintings, from Giotto to Warhol. Someone earlier mentioned nudes. Well, if Botticelli's Venus is too much for your household, this book isn't for you, but as nudes go, it's pretty tame. My boy and I enjoyed it over a period of months (ages 2-3). He may not have understood a lot that an older child might, but he did like the paintings and enjoyed finding the details--like the "I spy" books.

What to look for

This book is great for learning more about art. Giving to young people; great intro to art.

What an amazing resource

We homeschool and were looking for a book to use with artist studies. This book has wonderful pictures, and points out details that were surprising to me, even on very familiar prints. I had borrowed this from the library, and the first day home I knew we would buy it for our own home library. This book would be a welcome addition to any child's collection, for pure enjoyment or simple introductions to the world of famous masterpieces.
