A FEAST for the Eyes
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
In searching for sources of free audio books, I found
Books Should Be Free and rushed to the Children's Category.
http://www.booksshouldbefree.com/category.jsp?tag=4
Here I found a Treasure Chest of not only free text
(to continue reading on the screen or download as a plain text file)
and free audio MP3 files for downloading,
but also the original (perhaps) book cover art,
some of which are sampled here.
On the page, click on each for a larger view.
If nothing else, with your child compare (contrast)
the covers of Peter Pan or Anne of Green Gables
with the current ones
and talk about which s/he likes better and why.
MI: Interpersonal and Intrapersonal
Without having technical knowledge, we each know what appeals to us.
Explore the art in your library (MI:Kinesthesic, Visual) or online (MI: Visual).
And, no matter how you value Picasso,
at least for me, I agree with him -
art washes away from my soul
the dust of everyday life and fills it with beauty.
Give yourself and another this gift, won't you?
