{"product_id":"salvador-dalz-and-the-surrealists-michael-elsohn-ross-9781556524790","title":"Salvador Dalí and the Surrealists: Their Lives and Ideas, 21 Activities","description":"The bizarre and often humorous creations of René Magritte, Joan Miró, Salvador Dalí, and other surrealists are showcased in this activity guide for young artists. Foremost among the surrealists, Salvador Dalí was a painter, filmmaker, designer, performance artist, and eccentric self-promoter. His famous icons, including the melting watches, double images, and everyday objects set in odd contexts, helped to define the way people view reality and encourage children to view the world in new ways. Dalí's controversial life is explored while children trace the roots of some familiar modern images. These wild and wonderful activities include making Man Ray-inspired solar prints, filming a Dali-esque dreamscape video, writing surrealist poetry, making collages, and assembling art with found objects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Elsohn Ross\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 155652479X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781556524790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chicago Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 144\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.66h x 11.00w x 0.32d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 7\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade Plus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e104718 \/ Salvador Dali and the Surrealists: Their Lives and Ideas: 21 Activities\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePW Notes and Reprints\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/22\/2003 pg. 107\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2003 pg. 510\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHorn Book Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2004 pg. 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2003 pg. 173\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKliatt\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2004 pg. 35\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2003 pg. 174 - Superior,Well Above Average\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2004 pg. 50\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2004 pg. 174 - Superior,Well Above Average\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/22\/2003","brand":"Michael Elsohn Ross","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088557715711,"sku":"9781556524790","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4a6a91d3-0670-459b-8631-12dd88dd0a95.jpg?v=1769105434","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/salvador-dalz-and-the-surrealists-michael-elsohn-ross-9781556524790","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
