4 out of 5 stars Great Book!   March 9, 2007

I am a middle school art teacher and this book fits right in with my artist report unit. Using a graphic organizer, my students explored the world of famous artists. This book is great for kids because it breaks things down into simpler terms than academic or more adult works. Colorful, sweet and to the point.


5 out of 5 stars Frida Kahlo the Beautiful artist   March 10, 2007

Frida Kahlo is a very wonderful artist. Her pictures are Beautiful. She paints things really good and I think I cant even paint that good! This book tells you how good Frida Kahlo was at art. She paints herself she paints animals she paints things that blow off your head, her paintings are so good! Well, read this book to find out how frida saved her life by doing art. Reccomended for people who may want to be better at art.

Great idea contained in this book. Having a student present the book as her report. I used this to have my students pick artists to write a report about. Read the book to my older students. 4-7th grade. A little lengthy for the little ones.
