Critical Reviews

"A child-friendly approach to art history, likely to spark interest in the originals and inspire gallery visits" - Kirkus

"Art styles, fun facts, time periods, and a lot of pets are present in the book, and that one snazzy cat that takes part in the art tour is not at all impressed! (or so she says)." - GeekDad Blog
