Author #176 : Art and Dinosaurs-looking at them in a new light with the Newbolds

If da Vinci Painted a Dinosaur with text by Amy Newbold and art by Greg Newbold.  This husband and wife team also collaborated on If Picasso Painted a Snowman.  Both books take a whimsical look at great artists and imagine the art produced by them.  What if Diego Rivera painted dinosaurs (it would feature lilies) or dinosaurs in tutus ala Edgar Degas.  Not only do the books include little bios of each artist but the dinosaur book also includes the name of dinosaur featured in each piece of art such as Compsognathus in the picture done in the style of Rivera.  Have some reluctant art appreciation in your home?  These books are a cute way to introduce some famous works of art in a humorous way.
