Book Reviews of Linnea in Monet's Garden
Book Review: My 7 1/2 year old loved this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
After browsing through a toy store with my daughter and coming across a Linnea rag doll, we decided to purchase the book displayed there as well entitled: Linnea In Monet's Garden. I was amazed to see my little girl become totally engrossed in this book and develope a speedy facination for Monet at the same time! After looking at the wonderful paintings contained in the pages, my little girl produced a pencil and a sketch pad and proceeded to sketch the flowers in our garden outside. We homeschool and are always on the lookout for good books. This is one I'm thankful we stumbled across! I think Linnea should visit Michel Angelo next!Book Review: A Wonderful Book

When I was in elementary school, I used to check this book out of the library weekly. I absolutely adored it and still do...It is a great introduction to art and in addition, a look into travel and culture appreciation.
Some of the pictures in this book have stuck with me for years, especially the transition of Monet's Japanese Bridge painting from 1899-1923 when he'd lost most of his eyesight due to cataracts.
If you're looking for a charming book to introduce the idea of art to your children, or you specifically enjoy Monet, this is a great purchase.
Book Review: A wonderful introduction to Monet!

Linnea is a little girl who travels with her neighbor to Paris to see Monet's paintings. Delighted by what she sees, Linnea goes with her neighbor to Giverny to see Monet's wonderful home and gardens. This delightful book has the animated Linnea prancing along in the grounds at Giverny, which are presented in photographs. She learns and explains everything she sees; her sparkling "personality" makes Monet and his art come alive for young readers. Linnea is a joy! She can be purchased as a doll as well.Book Review: Fantastic!

In Sweden where I come from we have alot of books about Linnea, but this one is one of the greatest. If you can find the others ones in english or in an other language, do buy them. Just to tell you something about them: theres one about when she is planting and making flowers groving and one there she is baking and learning kids about kitchen stuff. The authors of Linnea books has also wrote books about Linus and Maja, try and find them, you will enjoy asmuch..Book Review: Been there myself!
Summary: 5 Stars
Fabulous book about places I have visited and loved -- I actually
know Michelle who owns the Hotel Esmerelda (she will autograph my
copy of book), and have spent many happy hours in the bookstore
around the corner (never go to Paris without visiting it), and
of course, Monet's art and home are the pinnacle. A wonderful
and inspirational book for all!
