This entry in the Little People, Big Dreams series offers a sensitive and honest biography of Van Gogh for young children. Vincent’s close ties to his brother are noted as are his struggles to settle into adult life and fit in.

Readers watch as Vincent begins to paint and develops his own style. They also learn in a simple way about his on going mental health issues.

This title shows how children can learn about many different kinds of people including those whose lives are not easy. I recommend this book and also believe that it could lead to good discussions between children and adults.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this title. All opinions are my own.
