This new interactive board book introduces children to the varied collection of New York's Whitney Museum of American Art, including must-see masterpieces by Andy Warhol, Cindy Sherman, Alexander Calder and Roy Lichtenstein.
"Art This Way" notably features a variety of foldouts, flaps and die cuts that encourage young readers to dig deeper into the curated selection of fine art, in which male and female artists are showcased equally.
Each work of art is also accompanied by a concise text to provide context about the artist's practice, allowing the book to speak to children aged between six months to five years.
"Art This Way" is listed at $19.95.
