Absolutely fantastic.By J. SkinnerMy 6 young children (ages 12 to 3) and I have all had fun with this book. In fact. everyone in my family keeps passing it around and I have a hard time finding it when I want to use it. so I purchase 2 more of Christopher Harts book to keep for my self. and the kids get this one to use. The book has allowed me to re-find a love in art that I lost 20 years ago as a child. You will not be disappointed in the purchase.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
