Description

Make art an adventure for your child with classic picture book character, Katie! For over 25 years, Katie has stepped into the most famous and familiar paintings in the world for an exciting adventure. This latest edition of a classic really is the best way to introduce children to a lifetime love of art. Katie leaps through the frames of five famous paintings by George Seurat, Camille Pissarro and Paul Signac! Why not collect all 13 titles in the Katie series.

On a hot, sunny day, a painting of some bathers in a cool river proves too tempting for Katie, and so she dives straight into the picture! But Katie doesn't just cause a splash - she causes a flood! Paddling with new friends might be fun, but how will Katie stop the water pouring into the gallery?

A wonderful introduction and explanation of the Pointillist art style, featuring five masterpieces from three famous artists:
Bathers at Asnieres by Georges Seurat
Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte by Georges Seurat
Port of Honfleur by Georges Seurat
Woman Hanging up the Washing by Camille Pissarro
Portrait of Felix Feneon by Paul Signac
