Renoir for Kids

. Pelican Publishing Company, $8.95 (10pp) ISBN 978-1-58980-206-3

Five large square board books now being published by Pelican (previously published by Budding Artists Inc.) feature child-friendly works by acclaimed artists as part of the Great Art for Kids series, edited by Margaret E. Hyde. In perhaps the most accessible title for a young audience, Cassatt for Kids presents 12 tender scenes of children at rest and at play. Each book offers no text other than the painting's title and, in small type, its location, medium, year of completion and size. Other painters featured: Matisse, Picasso, Renoir and Van Gogh.
