This seek-and-find book offers a creative way to instill art appreciation in children. Spreads assign readers a list of things to find within a work of art--eighteenth-century Indian miniatures, a Hokusai woodcut, and Seurat's A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte among them. A guide to the pictures reveals the puzzle solutions and includes brief artist bios.

Gr 3-5 This tall search-and-find picture book gives readers a glimpse into diverse art styles, techniques, and traditions through 21 selections, from a 12th-dynasty Egyptian wall painting to a 1981 Keith Haring work. The large spreads allow close inspection, and clever investigators may discover numerous minute details. A full citation of art sources completes the book with answers to the questions that introduce each work, for example, "I spy&30;two elephants&30;and several birdcages" in the 18th-century Indian miniature, Maharaja at a Garden Concert . While some familiar names and images are present, others are not, including pieces in private collections. A global collection for teaching or pure enjoyment.
