Beautifully designed and illustrated with drawings, photographs, and reproductions of works of art, the See and Do books offer children an ideal and engaging way to explore the lives of great artists and the works that made them famous.

Biographical sketches of Rembrandt with fascinating anecdotes and descriptions of how life was lived in his times bring him to life, while glimpses into his studio, combined with simple and clear explanations of how his paintings were created, offer young readers a thorough understanding of Rembrandt's working life. Moreover, the See and Do books directly engage children in the act of learning by asking questions about the paintings' content and style and suggesting activities that will help young people truly understand how a painter makes a painting. For ages nine to twelve.

Not available in the Netherlands or Belgium.
