Customer Review: Amazing pictures!
I love this book! Monet is one of my favorite artist’s and I especially love his Water Lily pictures. The contrasting colors are so beautiful! His art work always gives me a feeling of peace and serenity. Monet is an artist that you don’t have to understand the painting but just be able to enjoy all the colors and life that are in them.


Camille and the Sunflowers (Anholts Artists)
Customer Review: A great way to introduce children to art.
I think this is a wonderful way to introduce children to the paintings of Van Gogh through a gentle story of Van Gogh’s time in Camille’s town. All the illustrations are in a Van Gogh-esque style and the yellow fields, night sky, house and chair etc appear just in the background illustrations. In addition there are reproductions of some portraits and the famous sunflower painting. The story is quite sad as it reflects the true story where Van Gogh is not accepted by the people of the town, but his unhappiness is relatively implicit so my children (2&4) understand this as teasing rather than anything stronger, and at the end when Van Gogh leaves but they just assume he’s off to paint elsewhere. If you wanted to draw out lessons on being different, talk about great masters etc. this is a very good starting point.

Customer Review: Fantastic for literacy and art cross-curricular links.
A lovely book with excellent illustrations encorporating Van Gough’s own art work. This book gives a fictional view of Van Gough’s thoughts behind some of his most beautiful work. The book comes complete with lesson ideas for year 2, although I used the book with a reception class as we were looking at Van Gough’s sunflowers. It was a big hit as the children built up empathy with Van Gough and they produced brillant paintings themselves. It does not mention the ear!! and so is suitable for a primary age and is a fantastic teaching tool, and an easy to afford price!.
