A Bird or Two: 0 - Hardcover

This book would make a pretty addition to a primary library. Matisse is a popular artist to study and base projects around, and this book would certainly be used again and again as an introduction to the man and his work – it’s much nicer to read a story about someone than a dry biography.

A dreamily beautiful book that will appeal to quiet and sensitive readers. Her short descriptive sentences are descriptive sentences are poetic and evocative. She captures the essence of the painter's work simply and effectively with words that reflect them. Each component - both words and pictures - tell the story alone, but together they are triumphant. A jewel of a book to treasure. (Carousel )
