Picture books are the perfect medium to celebrate artists and art, because picture books are art and the illustrators who help make them are artists. Picture books about artists can expose readers to the lives, styles, and significant contributions of real-life artists, and the illustrations can bring their works of art to life on the page. Fictional picture books can tell stories about the importance of art and help children (and adults!) tap into their own imaginations and creativity. Ursula K.
