A is For Art
Author(s): Sarah Pepperle
A joyful alphabet of art from Aotearoa and around the world, curated especially for children! Before children can read, they engage with the language of pictures. The experience of art brings joy and delight to young children, connecting them with moments of beauty and wonder in the world around them. Curated for children aged 2–5 but suitable for anyone, this beautifully designed board book features full-page artworks by acclaimed artists from Aotearoa and around the world, accompanied by short, read-aloud texts. It features artworks in different media, from paintings to sculpture, photography to woodcuts, from the 1700s to the present. This stylish art book is the perfect way to introduce young children to art.
