| 1. | ![]() | Harold and the Purple Crayon
from HarperCollins
Price: $11.55
Customer Review:
There are some novels that you pick up and just can't put down. Harold and the Purple Crayon is a page turner in an adolescent way. It's just too much fun, and at 64 page count it's a novel for toddlers. There are elements of surprise, suspense, humor and adventure, you turn the page just to find... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

| 2. |  | The Art Lesson (Paperstar Book)
from Putnam Juvenile
Price: $5.99
Customer Review:
Tommy in this book seems spoiled and not willing/able to make something out of what he is given. He seems like a brat that wants his way and that is it. All artists learn to draw by looking. While bucking conventions is a good lesson, doing it as a spoiled child that thinks they have all the answers... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

| 3. |  | Draw Me a Star
from Philomel
Price: $13.59
Customer Review:
The paintings/illustrations in this book are classic Eric Carle and are actually on a bigger scale than many of his books. They are glorious and beatiful and in his completely unique style.
The story flows really well and can easily be seen as a religious tale. But, like the Chronicles of... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

I have just entered the field of preschool and was disappointed in the books for activities until I found Carlson. Her book isn't full of kiddie graphics as if the kids were reading, her instructions are clear and careful.

from Philomel

Customer Review:
For those of you who love Eric Carle, his art and stories, this book is a must have. A "coffee table" book that allows you to enjoy and cherish the work of this very creative artist and author.

from HarperCollins
Price: $11.55
Customer Review:
I've read this to my six-year-old since he was a five-year-old - he doesn't get tired of it, and mercifully, neither do I. The idea of a hero who uses _painting_ instead of punches to win the day is so cool it makes me wish I'd written it.
Also, I take my son to the children's floor at Berkeley... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

from Williamson Publishing Company
Customer Review:
This is another excellent art book in the "A Williamson Kids Can! Book" series. I have several in the series, all of which have provided me many ideas for my students' art projects. I have used this particular book least however, because the projects are more complicated than the other books, and... more info | 5.0 / 5.0
