Monet Chases the Light introduces children to the famous French artist and his obsession with capturing light in his paintings. Monet paints at all times of the day, in all seasons, and in all kinds of weather, chasing the light as it frolics through the fields, dances in the treetops, and skips across the water. He paints quickly as the light never stays still for long. Eventually the light comes to rest in Monet’s beautiful waterlily pond.
