Matisse's Garden Read Free Books and Download eBooks
One day, the French artist Henri Matisse cut a small bird out of a piece of paper. It looked lonely all by itself, so he cut out more shapes to join it. Before he knew it, Matisse had transformed his walls into larger-than-life gardens, filled with brightly colored plants, animals, and shapes of all sizes! Featuring cut-paper illustrations and interactive foldout pages, Matisse’s Garden is the inspiring story of how the artist’s never-ending curiosity helped turn a small experiment into a radical new form of art.

An absolutely beautiful art book! I bought it for my 5 year old "budding artist" granddaughter, and will order one for myself!
A beautiful book. I just saw the Matisse exhibit at MOMA and had to have this book. Beautifully written, illustrated, and published.
beautiful book
This is an incredibly inspiring book. We read this at home and my 3 and 5 year old then created some cutouts of their own. We brought the book to school and the students K-4th grade made their own masterpieces. The story is told in a very real way, making Matisse's story and art come to life. We highly recommend this book!
Nice book with delightful illustrations. The child learns about the artist as well as stimulated to create his or her own cut outs
This is a children's picture book about Matisse. If youre studying Matisse with elementary aged children I would highly recommend this.
I love this book...it really made y day!!
Good for kids.
