在博物馆猫Leo的俏皮引导下，读者们将接触到抽象画、超现实主义绘画、裸体画和当代艺术、古代雕塑、静物画和肖像。但是，本书不是把事实告诉读者们让他们记住，而是教给他们知识，让他们能够对著名的艺术作品做出自己的解读。知道符号是如何产生作用的，他们就能解读弗里达•卡洛自画像中的线索；了解超现实主义，他们会自己决定琼•米罗的抽象涂鸦是怎么回事。

这本书表明，艺术并不是要知道正确的答案，而是要享受乐趣，要有自己的想法，以及从不同的角度看问题。

This irreverent introduction to art gives children the confidence to respond to art on their own terms, and – most importantly – to have fun with it.

Under the playful guidance of Leo, the museum cat, readers encounter abstract, Surrealist, nude and contemporary art, ancient sculpture, still lifes and portraits. But instead of being told facts to memorize, they’re equipped with the knowledge that allows them to come up with their own interpretations of famous art works. Knowing how symbols work, they’ll decipher clues in Frida Kahlo’s self-portrait; understanding Surrealism, they’ll decide for themselves what Joan Miró’s abstract doodles are all about.

This book shows that art isn’t about knowing the right answers – it’s about having fun, making up your own mind and seeing things from a different angle.
