Most Helpful Customer Reviews 16 of 16 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent story for any age, July 9, 1999 By A Customer This book was given to my son as a gift by his Cousin whose name is, surprise, surprise...Katie. He was only 6 months old at the time, and I have been reading this book to him at least 2 times a week ever since, and he is now 2 1/2. He now asks for it by name and wants me to read it to him almost every night. It is a great book to peak the interest of a child, when preparing them to go to the Art Museum for the first time. As well it is as interesting and entertaining to the adult reading. James Mayhew introduces your child to famous works of art without boring them. I'm looking forward to our first visit to the Art Museum when my son can actually see the paintings from the book in real life. I highly recommend this book for any age group. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic!, June 2, 2000 By A Customer When read to children once, it quickly becomes a favorite in the house.
