As soon as I saw this book, I fell in love with it. It is absolutely beautiful - the illustrations are wonderful and the storyline is adorable.

I sat down with my little niece and we read through the book as a bedtime story - twice.

Katie and the Spanish Princess is a sweet story about Katie is going to celebrate her birthday - but she needs a fancy dress! where better to be inspired than visiting an art gallery where Katie will get to explore and live in 5 paintings.

Not only is the story extremely clever, it is also educational (although I did not mention that to my niece).

As I mentioned the illustrations are beautiful and it makes you want to slowly turn the pages and explore each illustration in great detail.

I loved, loved this book.

My four-year-old loves the Katie books. She is learning to recognize paintings, but feels like she is just enjoying a favorite story. I'm not a flash card mamma, but I want my kids to have a basic knowledge of classical art. This is a wonderful way to go about it.

I got this book to read to my 3 y/o niece when I went to visit her. She was probably a little young for it, but she did enjoy that there was a princess in the book. It would be fun to share with an older child who might be more interesting in learning about the art.

My 6 year old niece, Katie, loves these books. This is my favorite one because I just find the drawings so enchanting and beautiful. Once you have one you'll want to have them all.
