Book Reviews

Abstract

This beautifully produced and exciting book is in the best sense a descriptive catalogue of the creative works of children in a small, all‐age country school in New Zealand. The publishers, the designer (Mr. Roy Cowan), the author, and the children have combined to produce a book whose narrative is threaded with a rich and varied collection of illustrations. These include numerous black and white photographs, large and detailed, of the children at work and play, full‐colour reproductions of paintings, and a magnificent array of lino‐prints, in single colours. The book itself is a fitting testimony to the conception of education through the arts which Mr. Richardson evolved at Oruaiti School.
