Learn as you become an artist or an explorer! Whether they are guides to museums, catalogues for temporary exhibitions, or books on individual artists, 'Happy Museum!' books are great accessories for children, their families and teachers, on trips to a museum, an exhibition, at home or in school. The approach taken is playful and interactive, so that the child can learn while having fun! The books are peppered with games, comments, food for thought, opportunities for creativity and drawing, and concepts from art history. They help children to assimilate ideas which might seem complicated or abstract: techniques or theories such as 'still life', 'watercolour' or 'Impressionism'. * Discover the wonderful world of Chagall, the folklore of his country Russia. * Discover his love for farm animals, dream-like, fantasy animals. * Take a new look, through his eyes, at the fables of La Fontaine. * Take your paints and brushes to the circus and paint the acrobats, musicians and clowns... * Could that be the Eiffel Tower over there, taking a midnight stroll? * Where is Chagall taking us, to which magical universe?
