Other resources for Meet the Masters include BOOKS!
Here is the Meet the Masters Suggested Reading List
Children enjoy having books about the artists they are studying in their classroom. In this way they can see other examples of the artists' work and learn more about their life. Schools are encouraged to start their own art library.
This list includes many of the favorite titles that will provide additional reading for Meet the Masters volunteers, teachers and students. Art books can be found on sale at bookstores and museum shops. Most can be found in public libraries, and some are paperbacks that can be ordered from most bookstores. Many are written at the elementary level and can be found in the Children's Department of the library.
We especially recommend the Art for Children series by Doubleday.
We also recommend two easy-reader storybooks from Barrons Educational Series, Inc., 113 Crossways Park Drive, Woodbury, New York, 11797; Leonardo da Vinci , and Pablo Picasso by Ibi Lepscky.
A particularly excellent book for both volunteers and children is: Looking at Paintings, by Frances Kennet and Terry Measham, Van Nostrand Reinhold, Co.
