His series of Katie books are much-loved and respected as an early introduction to art. 'Ella Bella Ballerina and The Sleeping Beauty' was James' first title featuring the adorable Ella Bella, and has been illustrated using a new delightfully retro art style.

fun introduction to Impressionist art - for all Katies
This is a great story for children which mixes fantasy time-travel with an introduction to some of the most famous Impressionist artists. My Katie has loved this story since she was about 3 and never tires of reading it again and again.

Now I'm trying to find the author's other Katie stories....

Excellent books to introduce young children to art
A fantastic range of books which have been really helpful to me. Teaching Year 1 Infants about different artists from around the world with a lovely story and some lovely pictures.
