Thé Tjong-Khing has made an original and funny picture book without words and it is about Art. There are some clues on the back of the book but you can also make up your own story. Although there are some points that are fixed. Mrs. Dog loves art very much, she reads a lot of books about art and she also likes to paint. At the moment she is working on a painting for which Mr. Dog patiently poses, together with a big cake.
In this book you come to meet many world-famous paintings and painting styles, in a casual way. We immediately recognize Cutting on grass, a famous painting by Rotterdam artist Co Westerik. (Duh!). Among works by Magritte, Munch, Picasso, Hokusai Keith Haring and a Mondrian, amongst many others . :))
But what in the world is happening here? A painting is being stolen! The anilmals do not take that lightly. Let's go after it! Browse through this picture book and do the assignments. Our little monsters think it is a super fun book and so do we!
