One in the "Touch the Art" board book series, which will expose very young children to famous artists and important periods in art history. The book begins with a view of the artist's bedroom and includes a red blanket that is draped over it. Inside the book there is a painting by Degas titled L'Etoile, and kids can feel the texture of the ballerina's tutu. Also included are several other members or cotemporaries of the Impressionist School. I particularly liked the way this book opened with Van Gogh and closed with his famous painting The Stormy Night. The closing pages, entitled "Artifacts," present information about the paintings and the artists. These books could be used with any age group and in art programs. Teachers could challenge kids to make their own reproductions and to add a tactile element. Others in the series include Brush Mona Lisa's Hair, Feed Matisse's Fish, and Pop Warhol's Top.
