(3) 4-6 This book's author, son of surrealist artist parents, describes his boyhood memories of family friend Pablo Picasso; he did, in fact, bite Picasso while playing once--and the artist bit back. Highlights include reproductions of Picasso's artwork along with interesting tidbits and guiding questions about individual pieces ("Take a look at the mother's face. Can you see what Picasso used to make it?"). Glos.
