Anyway, so far I've found three main sources of such books, and I'm looking for more!
- MOMA's six-book series by Philip Yenawine: Shapes, Lines, Colors, People, Places, Stories
- The Metropolitan Museum of Art's Museum ABC, Museum 123, Museum Shapes and the mysteriously out-of-print Museum Colors
- Everything by Lucy Mickelthwait. Dear god I love her. We started with Children's Book of Art: Great Pictures, First Words, and then found Spot a Cat at the thrift store, and just checked out I Spy Shapes in Art from the library and man, she just does flawless work. I wanted to know more about her catalog, so this is a bibliography I just pulled together. (Note: Can someone reassure me she's not dead? Because she seems to have stopped publishing in the 1990s and there should be more from her!)
- I SPY SERIES:
- I Spy Shapes in Art
- I Spy an Alphabet in Art
- I Spy Colors in Art
- I Spy Two Eyes: Numbers in Art
- I Spy a Freight Train
- I Spy Animals in Art
- A CHILD'S BOOK OF ART SERIES:
- A Child's Book of Art: Discover Great Paintings
- A Child's Book of Art: Great Pictures, First Words
- A Child's Book of Play in Art
- SPOT-A SERIES:
- Spot a Dog
- Spot a Cat
