这本色彩斑斓、趣味横生的书籍面向4至8岁的儿童，但同样吸引各年龄段的读者。它提出了以下问题：艺术家是谁？他们为什么创作艺术？他们使用什么材料？他们借助什么工具？他们的艺术作品有哪些形式？

书籍以参观艺术家工作室群为主线，向读者介绍了街头艺术家、陶艺家、概念艺术家、纺织艺术家、摄影师、玻璃吹制师等众多艺术家！艺术家们展示了他们的工作空间和技术，并解释了他们创作艺术的原因。

罗斯和多罗的首部作品《举办一场伟大的展览》于2021年出版，该书因“揭开艺术世界的神秘面纱，让初出茅庐的小艺术家们也能轻松接触”而受到《纽约时报》的赞誉，并获得了著名作家兼插画家奥利弗·杰弗斯的称赞，他写道：“如果这本书能让哪怕一个孩子意识到[艺术]是一个可行的职业选择，那么它就完成了它的使命，因为艺术的重要性无法用言语来形容！”

如今，罗斯和多罗再次携手，将他们对艺术世界的经验和热爱带给年轻的读者。

Geared to children ages 4 to 8, but with appeal for all ages, this colorful and playful book asks: Who are artists? Why do they make art? What materials do they use? What tools do they work with? What forms do their artworks take?

Structured around a tour of an artists’ studio complex, the book introduces readers to street artists, ceramicists, conceptual artists, textile artists, photographers, glassblowers, and more! The artists share their working spaces and their techniques while explaining why they make art.

Rose and Doro’s first publication, Making a Great Exhibition, published in 2021, was acclaimed by The New York Times for “demystifying the art world and making it accessible to budding young artists,” and lauded by the renowned author and illustrator Oliver Jeffers, who wrote, “If this book helps shed light to just one kid that [art] is a viable career option, then it has done its job, as art is indescribably important!”

Now Rose and Doro have teamed up for a second time to bring their experiences with and love for the world of art to a young audience.
