AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Once Upon a Picture by Sally Swain is a stimulating, superbly illustrated picture book. It introduces the works of four major artists, Van Gogh, Renoir, Rousseau and Klee, to people of all ages. The teacher notes are extensive and contain exciting cross curricula activities. The book can be approached on two (or more!) levels: as art appreciation for art students in years 5 to 12 and as a foundation experience for younger students to expose them to the works of some of the masters (Publisher information)
