I both find this book good and the worst book of all time.
Have my reasons. ( )

Absolutely beautifully illustrated story, touching and informative. ( )

Cute story; if I come across another Linnea book I'll read it. She's an established character in a series of books; in this one, she and an adult friend take a trip to France to visit Monet's house and garden, and delight in finding the scenes that he painted so often. A pleasant and at least mildly interesting story, which ends up being a sketchy biography of Monet as well. The illustrations are very nice, drawings of the garden and what they see as well as photographs of Monet and his family (some "never before published", it says). ( )

Linnea has been in Paris! And she has visited the painter Claude Monet's garden! She even stood on the same little Japanese bridge that Monet painted so often in his pictures.

an informational book that discusses the different aspects of monet's work of art and how they are created
