5.0 out of 5 starswith beautiful artwork and really well-written stories in prose
Reviewed in Canada on October 13, 2014
This is such a cute box set, with beautiful artwork and really well-written stories in prose. Our babies are only 1, so it's great because they are board books, but I can also see this set lasting for quite a while. People complained about the naked people in some of the art, but I don't see that being a problem, and it can open up discussions with your children anyway. Also, some people mentioned that the books were small, but they aren't as small as some travel board books you can get, so they are a great size, I think, Overall, it was well worth the purchase.

2.0 out of 5 starsVery disappointing
Reviewed in Canada on July 22, 2015
Good in premise but poor execution. Yes there are images by famous painters but the stories that accompany them are weak at best and the image quality is bad. no other way to put it. These books could have been great.

3.0 out of 5 stars Matisse Books Contains Nudes, Other Books Lovely
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2019
Verified Purchase
I love the pictures and rhyming verses, but I didn’t feel the Mattise book was appropriate for young children, who are the intended audience. I appreciate art and am not a prude, but there are plenty of other works that could have been included rather than two full pages of nudes. I wish I would have bought the books individually even though they were less expensive as a set.

3.0 out of 5 stars Matisse has nudes and not appropriate for young children
Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2020

I really love these books as a rule and have another in this series. I jumped at the price of this package and bought 2 more as gifts (a total of 3 sets). Imagine my disappointment that there are nudes in these books which are obviously geared toward very young children. 5 stars for the other books but throwing away the Matisse books. Very disappointed.

3.0 out of 5 stars Artist misrepresentation
Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2021

Great artists and pieces. Printing is lacking quality. Unfortunately all books have dull images of the paintings which make for a lackluster appearance of some revered artists.

Mom was pleased. 3-year-old was unenthused opening this between cooler gifts. Bought it for mom-friend anyway, so deal with it, kiddo!

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice collection, but maybe for a different audience.
Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2017
Verified Purchase
I liked it, BUT I can't say that it's a must have a normal family's collection. For one, the quality of the books is low and I fear I (as an Adult) am going to bend the cardboard. The pricepoint is quite good for getting 4 books, and they are all pretty good. I enjoyed the pictures curated and the rhyming text to tie them together, but I can see how it would annoy some people. The unfortunate thing is, I think I enjoy these books more than my toddler son. I find this series, despite it's gimmicky indie boardbook style, a better fit for older children and even adults (minus the rhyming text that people complain about).

A bit more nudity than I'd expect in a children's book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Just OK
Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2010
Verified Purchase
These are okay, but could have been way better. The pictures are not the iconic paintings associated with each artist, but instead a random assortment. The text doesn't hold my son's attention.
