Review:

Praise for the How Artists See series:

"Carroll's series eclipses the competition How Artists See has the makings of a classic a core experience for budding art enthusiasts to build on." — Publishers Weekly

"Wow! If you have been looking for a way to get children interested in art, call off the search, it just doesn't get any better than this." — Children's Literature Choice List

" These are first-rate art appreciation guides for adults and young children together, or older readers alone." — Children's Literature Review

"With wonderful symmetry and utter simplicity, each volume presents sixteen works of art [that] capture the feeling of seeing works of art in a museum. The text reads as the dialogue a child and adult might have as they stroll through a museum gallery. These books hold treasures for the eyes, heart, and mind." — Hungry Minds
