Great for my homeschooled 5th grader!
I recently got this art book for my daughter to use in our homeschool, for art and itâs been a wonderful resource! The content is perfectly suited for her age, with important information about artist and art . It is not long and boring .
I love that it balances both learning and fun, making art an enjoyable part of our homeschool routine. We talk about the artist , their art and we try to recreate it. Unfortunately at schools they donât talk much about famous artists or musicians. Highly recommend it for any parent looking to nurture their childâs artistic talents!

Great for kids with interest in art!
Bought this after my 7-year granddaughter attended art camp. She was so hooked on knowing more about classical artists. She spends hours learning more in this book! Kid-friendly.

Lovely book
A great book for my young Art History students to look through and for me to gather information from.

Totally worth it.
This book is informative and the pictures are absolutely beautiful. Really good for an introduction to art for kiddos.

Awesome book, but does contain art nudity.
I’m always searching for books to keep in my art classroom, so I was super excited about this one. Unfortunately, I can’t use it in my classroom without censoring it (which I hate doing, because it’s art, for crying out loud). So, if you teach in an elementary public school, it’s probably not classroom safe. Great to keep at home, though.

Perfect for children
My six year old poured over this book, working to recreate each painting. Gives a nice amount of info about each artist without overwhelming kids with text.

My 12-year-old son really liked this book because rather than bombarding the young reader with a turgid history, it focuses on explaining the story behind some of the most iconic paintings in the history of art, taking one picture at a time. Other facts are carefully sneaked in, but this is a book that illuminates rather than lectures. It’s amazing how interested children can be in art, if only we bother to make it interesting for them (without patronising them with crass attempts to be ‘cool’). Because of the strong visual content, with full page paintings, this could be enjoyed by younger readers as well as older children.
Just a person –
This is a good book to introduce children to art. There are other similar ones, such as the Art Book For Children (Phaidon) which do similar things. All are lovely introductions for kids, with big, good quality reproductions of paintings, a short and digestible summary of the artist and meaning of the work in particular and fun tidbits for kids about the artist.
This book is different as it presents the art in order of their date and, as such, is a mini art history for kids (a kidsâ Story of Art by Gombrich)
I would definitely recommend for kids aged up to 12.
