How to Handle a nest JSON array in .NET

How would I extract "Array" from the JSON object below using .NET? I can parse the string, but I would prefer a more elegant solution. I am using the Newtonsoft library (jObject, JArray).

Thanks,
Matt

{
"Message": null,
"Array": [
{
"field0": "world",
"field1": "hello"
},
{
"field0": "data1",
"field1": "data2"
}
]
}
