Pippa Goodhart,
This or That
Cramming an amazing museum's entire collection into a book would be quite some feat and in "This or That?" by Pippa Goodhart, it's quite an achievement to see such a huge swathe of the amazing British Museum collection of artifacts cropping up in a deliciously designed activity book for the tiniest of tinies.
Using clever layouts and amazing quality photos of the exhibits, kids can take a cultural journey around the collection, deciding which objects they like best.
Would you love a Viking Helmet or a Bronze Age Mask?
How about an egyptian cartouche or perhaps a beautiful silk gown from the furthest reaches of the orient?
Opulent treasures and amazing things are there to be discovered, and thanks to a handy set of pictorial guides at the back of the book you can find out what the objects are and from which era.
Sum this book up in a sentence: A thoroughly absorbing and fascinating look at one of the most impressive museum collections on the planet, filled with truly amazing objects.
"This or That?" by Pippa Goodhart is out now, published by Nosy Crow / British Museum (very kindly supplied for review).
