A selection of fine art paintings from artists worldwide and throughout history, combined with a simple `I Spy' game of spotting colours. A fun way to introduce children to fine art through concept-based play.
I spy with my little eye...

Each magnificent painting in this book has a different coloured object for you to look for - some are easy, but some are difficult. And when you have found them all, there are lots of other interesting things to spot.
Lucy Micklethwait has selected a wonderful range of fine art by painters including Magritte, Van Gogh, Miro and Chagall. With a gloriously reproduced piece of art on each spread, this title is the ultimate picture-puzzle challenge for children, making art accessible and fun.
