Dropping In on Rousseau

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jim McNeill. Puffer the puffin pays a visit to Henri Rousseau and learns about his life and art. The dialogue is meant to inspire readers to think critically about art, but Puffer's own extensive interpretations may preclude creative thinking. Illustrations include large-scale reproductions as well as flat drawings representing Paris, Rousseau, and other significant artists of the day.
