Recenzje

'In this elegantly written book, Mary Kear and Gloria Call-away draw together the collective wisdom of their contributors and shape it into an intelligent and accessible account of the arts inn primary schools ... the straight-forward and sensible style of this book which, although it will not tell you how to mix the paints, is a thoroughly stimulating read.' - Times Educational Supplement
