Unit price perLouise Bourgeois Made Giant Spiders and Wasn't Sorry (English)

Unit price perFausto Gilberti
Louise Bourgeois was a world-famous artist who told stories of her life through her art until she was 98 years old. She drew, wove, and sculpted pieces inspired by her experiences, often using everyday objects that reminded her of her family and her past.
Her famous giant spiders fascinate – and sometimes terrify – art lovers to this day, but the truth behind the inspiration for these towering sculptors is not as scary as it may seem. This is an inspiring story about a young girl who became the first female sculptor to have a solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York – a unique picture-book celebration for children of one of the most important modern and contemporary woman artists of our time.

The cold wind begins to blow in the grey sky: it's time for Little Bear to go to bed. But how can he fall asleep when his forest friends, the mouse, the skunk, and the badger, are wandering nearby? Mama Bear explains to Little Bear that they too will soon retreat into the hollow of a log, a nest, or a burrow to escape the cold of winter. But Little Bear still doesn't want to go back to his den. Will Mama Bear manage to convince him?
