Colleagues: I've just had an electronic reference query about contemporary books on art for young folks("children" grades one through nine per the questioner!). The question came from someone whose mother owns a series of books dating from the 1930's that explains art in language that "children" of that age might understand and they want to know if there is a more contemporary series of books that covers this area... Since I select books for an academic library at an institution that does not "do" elementary and junior high art education, I am totally at a loss as to what to recommend or what alternatives to offer. Can someone in the Public Library Division help in this quest? Thanks in advance for whatever help you can provide to me.
