A History of Pictures for Children

"A journey through art history, from early art drawn on cave walls to the images we make today on our computers and phone cameras. It’s told through conversations between artist David Hockney and Martin Gayford, who talk with inspiring simplicity and clarity. I love the lively and thought-provoking chapter titles like: ‘What is a Shadow Exactly?’ and ‘Can Pictures Really Move?’ Sign up here for our newsletter featuring the best children’s and young adult books, as recommended by authors, teachers, librarians and, of course, kids. —Zoe Greaves"
