    I’m looking for something along the lines of the Anne books ( how Anne loves to dream and write and wants to be a writer) but having to do with art instead of writing to read with my 7 year old over the summer. She LOVES painting and sketching and drawing and coloring and I think would appreciate reading about a little girl, or boy, who had the same passion as she.

    Do any great reads exist? 🙂

    Thank you!

    Linnea in Monet’s Garden http://www.amazon.com/Linnea-Monets-Garden-Cristina-Bjork/dp/9129583144

    It was given to me when I was 7 and went to the Art Museum in Washington DC. I still have it and now my DD enjoys it.

    What are the Anne books?  My daughter loves to write and wants to be a writer.  Thanks.

    For art, the Katie book series comes to mind, like Katie Meets the Impressionists, or the Charlotte in Giverny series (though beware there is a reference to nude bathing, in France 1892).

    The Anne books are Anne of Green Gables; but even better “writer” books are the fabulous Betsy-Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace.  I wanted to BE Betsy when I was a little girl; I even had a “writing trunk.”  Laughing

    Thank you so much for the suggestions!! Just requested a bunch from the library!! These would probably be great reads as we learn about some of the artists next year!!

    And yes, Anne books are the Anne of Green Gables series! Sorry for not being more clearer! 🙂

    And I forgot all about Betsy-Tacy books! Those are fabulous!! Love them!
