Pablo Picasso (Great Artists) [Library Binding]

Adam G. Klein (Author)

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Grade 2–5—Clearly intended for reports, the writing in these basic biographies is so bland that these amazing artists come across as not very interesting. The illustrations are usually adequate, but on the pages discussing Picasso's Blue and Rose periods, the image included is not representative of either. While the captions are mostly descriptive, many do not include a title of the work or date. The books refer to ABDO's main Web site for updated Internet links, yet the site is poorly designed for children to navigate. Better options include the "Masterpieces: Artists and Their Works" series (Capstone) and the reliable "Getting to Know the World's Greatest Artists" series (Children's Press).—Robin L.
