In this book for psychologists, art therapists, and students, Golomb (University of Massachusetts) uses a developmental framework that combines theory with empirical investigations to reveal insights on the mental processes that underlie children’s drawings. She examines the artwork of normal and talented children and children who are emotionally disturbed or developmentally disabled, illustrating concepts with b&w and some color reproductions of children’s art.
