Art Fraud Detective

(4) 4-6 An opening cartoon strip sets up the premise: thirty paintings at a museum have been stolen and replaced by forgeries. Using a magnifying strip that is included with the book and the "museum catalog," the reader must identify which pictures are genuine and which are fakes. Information about the paintings (by artists such as Van Gogh, Monet, and Rembrandt) is included in the busy pages, giving this spot-the-differences book an educational aspect. Glos.
