My Book Recommendations

To help you and your kids on your art journeys, check out some of these informative and inspiring books:

Kids K-4 will love this Caldecott Medal Book winner: ‘Flotsam’ by David Wiesner. An amazing wordless picture book about a boy who finds a camera on the beach and develops photos of a fantastic underwater world. The details in the illustrations are delightful!

Celebrating the twentieth anniversary of her classic book with a second revised edition, Betty Edwards’ ’Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain’ is truly the ‘gold standard’ for developing visual perception.

‘How Children Make Art’ by George Szekely offers a original and refreshing perspective that’s an alternative to traditional art in the classroom.

Enjoy!
