In a Nutshell: If you’ve been a somewhat regular SFCT reader, you’re probably well aware of my love of all things art. Especially, art education. When the new artsy books arrive at the library I get a little grabby (MINE!), and once I’ve devoured them I love to their sing praises. The Great Art Treasure Hunt: I Spy Red, Yellow, and Blue is a keeper. The I Spy concept is a wonderful way to gain interest and provide an introduction to famous visual art pieces from various art movements around the world. A key for each picture is located in the back of the book, along with information about the work of art and its creator. Take a looksie:
You never know what you might find in the details! Also, be sure to check out The Great Art Treasure Hunt: I Spy with My Little Eye for even more artsy fartsy fun!
Extras: A list of interactive art websites for kids
