In An Artists Eyes, follow Jo as he journeys through the world of colour and creativity in an empowering story of confidence and imagination. Jo is a little boy who desperately wants to see like an artist. He tries as hard as he can to see the things the way Mo the artist does, and when he starts to use his imagination, he realises that the things he can dream up are completely unique. From the autumn oranges of the forest floor to pink and lilac pigeons in flight, Mo teaches Jo to trust his own eyes, and to see like an artist. This is a magical story about the power of imagination and discovering that our individual perspectives make us all artists, and no two artists eyes are the same.
An Artists Eyes is about the power of imagination, building confidence, and the beauty of the world around us, offering plenty of scope for discussions and activities with the children at your setting. * Teach Early Years *
