Pocket Bios: Pablo Picasso - ADVISABLE

Pocket Bios: Pablo Picasso. PICTURE BOOK/NON-FICTION. Mackids (Roaring Brook Press), 2019. $15. 9781250168986

BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

This smaller format book covers both Picasso’s personal life as well as his contributions to the art world. The book moves through his blue period, to his rose period, to cubism, and finally to surrealism. 

I like the extra details in this book, like the map, timeline, and interesting facts in the back of the book. They add dimension that could potentially make the reader want to want to learn more on their own.
