Two new entries in the Off the Wall Museum Guides for Kids series, Greek and Roman Art and Modern Art by Ruthie Knapp and Janice Lehmberg, offer museum-goers tips on how to view art of those eras. The first explains common terms and uses of objects, as well as details about Greek and Roman culture; the second offers brief biographies of such artists as Edward Hopper and Jackson Pollack. Full-color photographs of artwork from a variety of museums are indexed in the back. ( June)
