Following the success of Little People Big Dreams, the new Small Great Gestures series expands on those books to look at people who made their mark in one key area of life. Art looks at the lives and work of eleven artists and what their contribution to our cultural life has been. From Giotto in 14th century Florence to Banksy on a global scale, the book paints a vivid picture of key and diverse creative figures. While drawing on household names such as Picasso and Frida Kahlo, it also features less well known figures such as Guerrilla Girls and Clara Peeters. Fun and informative, Art (Small Great Gestures) provides children with a great introduction to the global world of art.
