| Publisher Description: What better way to learn shapes than with eye-catching works of art? With art from across Latin America and beyond, children will become armchair world travelers and art connoisseurs. This bilingual edition introduces early readers, and even earlier listeners, to shapes in both English and Spanish. One in a series of bilingual board books called Arte Kids that also includes 1, 2, 3, Si (an artistic exploration of numbers) and Colores Everywhere (featuring colors in the arts). Art for this book was selected from the collection of the San Antonio Museum of Art, one of the leading art museums in the United States with a collection spanning a broad range of history and world cultures. |
Contributor Bio(s): Art, San Antonio: - The San Antonio Museum of Art dates its history to 1925. Located in the former Lone Star Brewery complex, its collections position it as one of the preeminent city museums in the nation.Budnick, Madeleine: - Madeleine Budnick is the author, series editor, and designer of the ArteKids books. Budnick got her start designing books twenty-plus years ago and has of late been getting involved in written content as well. She brings to the series a passion for the arts (she holds a degree in art history and drawing) and a commitment to creating books that aim to inspire and enrich a child's world. In addition, she is deeply committed to language education and celebrating cultural richness. Her two young daughters--who knowingly and unknowingly act as consultants on the project--are in a language immersion school. Creating books that combine all these interests makes Budnick's work for ArteKids as much like play as the law allows. She lives in Portland, Oregon. |
