Read A-likes: Can You Find It?; Can You Find It Inside?; and Can You Find It, Too?

Personal Thoughts: This is fabulous way to teach children about art by making it fun and interesting!  Similar to a “Where’s Waldo” book, but the pictures are actual paintings from history, and the reader needs to find certain things within the painting.  This would make a great travel book.
