“A wonderfully interactive art book that teaches you about artists and also encourages you to create your own art on the book’s pages. It talks about Frida Kahlo and her self-portraits and then encourages you to draw your own self-portrait, to bring the book outside and draw what you see there, and to visit an art gallery and use the book to explore the works of art there. Beautifully designed and laid out, this is the perfect book for young artists.” Irish Independent
