ReviewsAs a coffee table board book for young kids (apple juice table board book?), this is a lovely presentation of 12 faces culled from the work of diverse twentieth and twenty-first century artists...The works are all interesting and well reproduced, one per large square page, framed in white. --Booklist In a follow-up to the high-contrast ART FOR BABY (2009), this wordless, oversized board book features colorful faces from critically acclaimed visual artists. --Kirkus Reviews (online) Use this book with elementary grade children ... for an art class on faces or self-portraits. --School Library Journal Readers will be left thinking about the different ways faces can be represented, and the mirrored surface in the final page lets them add their own features to the mix. --Publishers Weekly The book-making is excellent, and the art has been chosen with sensitivity to what babies will really want to look at. --The Horn Book
