 Good start up stuff ( arteducator2005 )
This book is great with the articles on the artists. They have brief articles written for junior high/high school age students. They read the article and if the teacher is absent, there can be a project to follow along with the reading. It is great to use for a substitute folder. Day one absent read articles and answer questions, day two start project and then days three-five work on project. So for an extended absence it's a great book.

 Not impressed ( jeanio )
The artist bio's are OK but you can easily download similar info. I actually returned the book because the projects were too simple for 'tweens and there are no color pictures or even enough pictures of the various artists' work.

 a good art book introducing young ones to art
This a book art book that introduces young ones to art and the famous artists behind so many of the commonly seen works. I haven't used it a ton, but I do think it's a good book with some good information that would allow a teacher to have some valuable help in exploring the history of some of the world's best known artists.

neato ( cubbie10 )
This is a great product to introduce students who are younger and not exactly into art to the greatest artists. I haven't yet used it, but I will be soon just to give my students the name and basic info of the artist to get them started on researching the artist.

Let's Meet Famous Artists
This book is a good sourch of handout materials and projects for elementary students. Several artists are not in the book which is dissappointing, however, the ones included are masters in the world of art history.
