(3) K-3 The first half of the book provides background on Rivera's life and the inspiration behind his work. Readers are then asked to imagine how he might paint subjects from life today: "Maybe Diego would paint shops at the mall... / as he painted street vendors selling flores." The accompanying illustrations ably mimic Rivera's style. A creative, discussion-provoking approach to art appreciation. Bib., glos.
