Not what I expected,

This review is from: Painting with Picasso (Mini Masters) (Board book)
The paintings they chose to use in this book are wide ranging in terms of style. The good thing is the paintings are not at all like the super abstract "Demoiselles d'Avignon." They include very realistic works of a boy on a donkey and a boy on a chair. There is even a self portrait at the end.I don't really care for the writing in this one. There really is no story and many of the paintings' descriptions are just boring. It seemed randomly put together and as if the author didn't know what to say. Even a couple of the paintings themselves are boring, which is not a word that usually comes to mind when I think of Picasso. Overall, I think it's a good book but it's not going to be for every kid. I think it's a great intro to Picasso, even if they just leaf through it and look at the pictures.

This review is from: Painting with Picasso (Mini Masters) (Board book)
My 2 year old loves this entire series. True, most children like pictures that are realistic because they are learning their first words and want to know what real things are, but Picasso is also wonderful. I find my son opening the pages over and over again exploring, wondering, and enjoying the art.

A liitle too abstract for a 2 year old,

This review is from: Painting with Picasso (Mini Masters) (Board book)
My daughter owns all 8 of Julie Merberg's mini masters and I find this one a little too abstract for my 2 year old daughter. She enjoys the more realistic pictures but tends to look away and ask for another book when it comes to the pages with Picasso's abstract pictures.
