Claude Monet
When Julie creeps through a hole in a tall gate and enters a mysterious garden, she meets an old man tending the flowers. The gentle gardener turns out to be the great artist, Claude Monet, and together they explore his magical world. Monet and Julie wander across the Japanese bridge, around the house and studios, and they float through water gardens where lilies sparkle as bright as stars.
Complete with reproductions of Monets work and a fold-out panorama of his water lily pond, this is another inspirational story from Laurence Anholts best-selling series, celebrating some of the worlds greatest artists and the real children who knew them.
