In the Garden with Van Gogh

Rating:
Summary: Great kids book, not bad for adult readers either!
Review: I completely agree with previous reviewer: this book isn't the usual kid book drivel which ends up driving you crazy when you read over and over. What a great way to introduce young kids to classic paintings! The last page is "Starry Night" and sets up bedtime perfectly. My kids love it, and I do too.

Summary: Great pics /cool rhymes
Review: My little son loves this book...the authors have successfully chosen pictures and written wonderful poems for each picture that tell a story throughout the book. I find the poems great because they aren't the usual baby drivel and the meter of them is soft and lilting...perfect for bedtime! We also bought the matisse story (the van gogh is a little bit better) but both are great...looking for more!

Summary: Great Kid's Book
Review: The author's have taken Van Gough's best and put together a rhyming book about the garden. The rhyme isn't easy but the cardboard backing and the bright photos are perfect for a toddler/new-born.
