Pablo Picasso: Breaking All the Rules Reviews


  • Y.Poston

    a great bio sketch

  • Evan

    This biography of Pablo Picasso is written from the perspective of a kid named Simon Packard, whose competitiveness with his twin brother leads him to choose Picasso as the subject of his school report about an artist. The book presents Picasso's life in chapter-like sections which do a good job of breaking up his work into the periods most art historians refer to in discussing his work. It presents a number of different works and helps children interpret their historical and artistic signficance.

  • Lena Barnes

    This is from the smart about art book series. This book is in the form of a student written book report on artist Pablo Picasso. It has great facts about the artist, connections that the students made with the artist, picture by the artist and imitations of the artist work by the student. These books are so fun yet informative. They can also inspire students to research about a famous artist, author, musician, etc. and write their own book about them.

    <3 I'd like to credit my love of his artwork to my grandparents who had a hardcover book of all his artwork on the coffee table growing up...

  • Jack

    He broke the rules of art. He painted everything the wrong way.
