The Impressionists

A new title in "Young Reading Series Three", which is aimed at children whose reading ability and confidence allows them to tackle longer and more complex stories. Today, Impressionist paintings draw blockbuster crowds to museums and art galleries, and sell for millions at auction. But who were the artists that painted 150 years ago, why did they upset people and how did they come to be known as the Impressionists? Developed in consultation with Alison Kelly, who is a senior lecturer in education and an early reading specialist from Roehampton University. Beautifully produced hardback with ribbon marker.
