Willy's Pictures by Anthony Browne

Hugely entertaining and informative - a unique art history lesson given by internationally acclaimed children's book illustrator.

Willy's pictures look like great works of art, but not quite ... for Willy has added himself and his friends to famous paintings by Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Vermeer, Manet and many more. Delight in his dazzling portfolio then open the fold-out pages to see the original pictures and learn about the artists who painted them. As Willy knows, every picture tells a story...
