I like Art is… by Bob Raczka for the one page that says, “Art is a tower that isn’t quite straight.” Maybe the question, “What is Art?” is one of those questions you avoid answering for your children. Each page of this book has a possible answer and collectively they give room for a much clearer explanation. This books works to define art and introduce you to 27 different artworks (3 attributed to women).

 

The Tower of Pisa and Christo’s “Surrounded Islands” remind me that I still have a few articles about our experience chasing art in Italy as a family to share with you when the New Year comes around.
