5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent concept, well executed
An amusing introduction to the artist Matisse that I highly recommend. Written as though it's an 8-yr-old's school report, it is accessible and very informative. It includes reproductions of Matisse art and biographical information. Loved it. And it was useful as a teaching tool.

This review is from: Henri Matisse: Drawing with Scissors (Smart About Art) (Paperback)
I loved this story! It does have a couple pages of nude-type art. I had to skip those pages in my middle school art class. But I will keep it forever and read the whole thing to my own children one day.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding biography in a scrapbook style, December 15, 2011
This review is from: Henri Matisse: Drawing with Scissors (Smart About Art) (Paperback)
This is a biography done in the style of a book report, with illustrations and examples and photographs scrapbooked in.

We tried creating art in a similar style: colorful, repeated shapes, abstract forms. Very nice book for getting children interested.

Also try "Printing" by Michelle Powell Printing (Step-by-Step Children's Crafts) for other great ideas and some Matisse-style projects.

This review is from: Henri Matisse: Drawing with Scissors (Smart About Art) (Paperback)
I think it was cute for parents of the child, but not really worth purchasing, I expectsd a graft project book. Waste of money.
