Introduce the littlest learners to color, patterns, and numbers with this interactive pumpkin-shaped board book by legendary artist Yayoi Ksuama
Join artist Yayoi Kusama on a journey into her playful world of dots! Shaped like Kusama’s beloved pumpkin sculptures, Lots of Dots introduces babies and toddlers to early learning concepts through rhythmic, read-aloud text and bold visual design. As children turn the pages, they follow a cheerful journey through Kusama’s famous dots – one dot, two dots, big dots, small dots – discovering changes in size, number, and color along the way.
This vibrant, brilliantly designed board book features bright colors, high-contrast illustrations, sparkles, shiny foil polka dots, and clever die-cuts, creating a tactile, sensory reading experience for little hands and growing minds. The book concludes with a short, child-friendly introduction to Kusama’s work, encouraging curiosity about artists and creative expression.
Eye-catching, educational, and a joy to read, Lots of Dots is an exuberant introduction to early concepts and the world of art.
Age range: 0-3 yearsYayoi Kusama is recognised as one of the most important artists of her time, with an international career spanning more than half a century. Born in 1929, she was raised in Matsumoto in central Japan where her family owned a large seed nursery. It was here that Kusama began painting and drawing at age ten. Throughout her career, Kusama has returned to the organic motifs she depicted as a child growing up among fields of flowers and pumpkins.
