Praise for Diego Rivera

**STARRED REVIEW** “By establishing a link between modern readers and Rivera and challenging them to "make our own murals," the author makes art both aspiration and action. Both solid introduction and exhortation, this book will thrill budding artists.”
Kirkus Reviews

“Kids will want to talk about the great painter, and young artists will find inspiration for their own creations.”
Booklist
