Description

Even the greatest works of art will often fail to enthrall young children.

But insert a funny, loveable animal into the scene, and it's a whole different story.

This delightful picture book takes artistic license as it reimagines the world's most famous paintings for a young audience.

A teddy bear surfs Hokusai's Great Wave; a charming pig changes Mona Lisa's smile from cryptic to comic; Munch's scream is far less angsty on a panda's face, while Whistler's mother-the elephant-gives new meaning to Arrangement in Grey and Black.

While it covers every major artistic school in art history, from Michelangelo and Velazquez to Kahlo and Rothko, each snort and guffaw offers an opportunity to explore the paintings in ways that will help kids remember them for the rest of their lives.
