This book by John Matthews explores the origins, development, and meaning of art from childhood to adolescence. Based on recent research, the author analyzes children's art, connecting it with linguistic and logical-mathematical thinking. Instead of viewing development as a gradual overcoming of limitations, Matthews reveals the systematic sense of representation in children. With illustrations and photographs of children's drawings and games, it shows that children's use of visual media has structure and meaning, even in the early stages. This book is of interest to psychologists, teachers, and anyone interested in the subject, thanks to its accessible style and understandable content.
