I think we have so many choices that she did not have so we need to make good choices. I love all the books you suggest in your post.

I appreciate your entry a lot.

I really like them. A set of questions are given for each piece of art in the collection. The questions are higher order and help younger kids interpret art.
Are some of the resources you mentioned used in TOG? Does TOG include art appreciation? If not, I want to get a few of your suggestions to supplement.

These posts on the Home Library Builders Series have been great. I have flagged a few of them so I can add the books to our want lists. Some of them have been favorites of ours too.

Thanks for the tips for Art Appreciation. We have been striving to make Art Appreciation a priority, (and music too) and it is great to have some quality CM type books to look for at our library or to put on our want list. We are lacking in Art and Music Appreciation books in our home.

I also wanted to let you know that I gave you an award. Come to my blog post at http://debbiesdigest.blogspot.com/2009/01/i-got-blog-award.html to claim your award and see what to do to pass it on.
Have a Great Day,
Hope to see you soon,
Debbie
