These compelling art-appreciation/hands-on-activity volumes acquaint children with masterpieces and their creators then engage them with a related, easy-to-follow project on a gatefold: Picasso's Weeping Woman leads to using bold shapes to express emotion; surrealist Miró's Carnival of Harlequin pairs with a prompt to create imaginative "crazy creatures." The art reproductions are crisp and the book design is snazzy. Glos., ind. Review covers these titles: Get into Art Animals and Get into Art People.
