Art Treasure Hunt

Introducing young readers to great art is as easy as A, B, see! Young children love a good game of I Spy with My Little Eye. In this beautifully designed book they are playfully challenged to find details hidden in some of the worlds greatest paintings. On each double-page spread, a large reproduction of a masterpiece such as Kandinskys Heavenly Blue, Seurats A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, Rousseaus The Dream or Breugels Childrens Games is paired with a list of items to search for: a dog, an umbrella, or a ball, for instance. A brief age-appropriate text makes connections between the art and the childs own environment. The pictures expose children to an endless array of artistic styles, periods, and cultures. Although the appendix contains solutions to the challenges, every child knows that the fun is in the hunt. Filled with hours of joyful discovery,
