It is a fantastic book for developing children's creativity as well as the eye-hand-brain connection! The intro is easy for young children to read and comprehend. I liked the font used for the table of contents as well as the explanation of how and why Nadia Russ created the art style NeoPopRealim. I also liked the step by step guide for creating in the NeoPopRealism style. I would definitely buy this book as a resource book in my artroom. Most importantly, The NeoPopRealism style is for every kind of young art student. I think it can help foster confidence in the art experience for the insecure, fearful of making a mistake student as well as the special needs student! I am a part time professor at Marywood University in the art education dept. and I am going to put this book in my syllabus and will also present NeoPopRealism philosophy, how, why and when it was created and have my student teachers do a lesson on its technique. Truly an excellent, informative, creative and FUN way of creating art!Francine Douaihy
