The Met Vincent Van Gogh: He Saw the World in Vibrant Colors by Amy Guglielmo

5.0

There are several popular biography series for children, but What the Artist Saw stands out by using art to tell the artist's story, and by inviting the reader to create art of their own with prompts relating to the narrative. The book discussed van Gogh's experience with mental illness and his eventual suicide delicately and honestly. This title and its series are a welcome addition to biography collections for middle grade kids, and can be recommended to fans of Who Was? and Little People, Big Dreams.
Thank you to NetGalley & DK Children's for the digital copy in exchange for an honest review.
