No, this isn’t a new book title (well, maybe one day…who knows?). Last year I was interviewed for a Chinese magazine called “Parenting Science”, and in some depth too. Usually authors get asked their favourite colour, name of pet etc. But this was a really interesting interview about how art is misunderstood by many adults who therefore become nervous of taking children to galleries, and suggestions for overcoming their conceerns, amongst other things.
Here’s a little extract. Unfortunately it is all in Chinese Mandarin so you can’t read my answers! The article followed the Chinese Madarin publication of the whole back-list of Katie art books. I really hope they help the next generation of Chinese children to become confident and happy about looking at pictures.
