Stories Pictures Tell. Book 5

A practical picture‑study manual for elementary classrooms offering monthly lessons centered on famous paintings and their artists. Each lesson provides a narrative description of the scene, background context about the artist, observation questions to engage pupils, commentary on composition and color, and suggestions for related drawing or writing exercises. Selected plates include works such as The Gleaners, The Mill, Pilgrims Going to Church, The Horse Fair, Mona Lisa, and Oxen Going to Work. The book also supplies review prompts and teacher notes so picture study can be used effectively in short daily periods or as a supplementary reader.
