Superb reproductions and expert text encourage children to get really involved with the pictures, to look closely, and to give their own reactions. And for every theme there is an 'Art Activity', to show how to apply the ideas they have been looking at in their own art. It features: over 45 works of art from all periods and cultures; stimulating text from an expert author; 'Art Activity' on every double page spread; quizzes and games; and a superb gift book.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49587444285713,"sku":"GOR001442648","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51741797482769,"sku":"GOR002108637","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0199107602.jpg?v=1750876142"},{"product_id":"look-book-gillian-wolfe-9781845074678","title":"Look","description":"Focuses on how artists use light in their paintings.
