Wing has summed up Albers’ life in a way that is fascinating and very child-friendly. Her language is simple while the concepts are large. She has managed to convey facts of his life alongside the wonder of his discoveries. I especially appreciate the portion of the book where she looks at color specifically, just as Albers does. Breckenreid’s art pays homage to Albers with its playful use of color and strong use of shape. She evokes Albers on every page.

Highly recommended for art classrooms but also as an accessible biography for children. Appropriate for ages 5-9.]]>
