Art Hardcover – Picture Book, April 12, 2006

This is one of the most wonderful books for children I have ever read~ So exuberant, Inspiring and FUN! I think I would rank it up there with "Where the Wild Things Are"! Kids will love the great illustrations and the sweet story! And parents and grandparents will love this as well!

I love this book. I ran across this book in high school (?) possibly junior high, and have been trying to track it down since. (I wasn't sure what it was called, only vague memories of what the pages looked like...) When I found it, I bought it and it is as good as I remembered it being. I have added it to my growing collection of children's books for my future children.

I got this book for the first week of school and it worked out well! The kids loved it

Teaching preservice teachers, I always look for books that complement my philosophy of introducing arts and creativity into the curriculum. Children and adults are hungry for creative outlooks in this time of standards. After reading the book to the class, we continue our discussion about how education can enhance or be a creativity blocker. Then of course, we must try painting ourselves to remember what it was like....

Loved the story.

I've been a huge fan of Mutts for some time, so when I saw this book by Patrick McDonnell, I felt like I needed to check it out. It's absolutely adorable and makes this little guy named Art, who is quite "Art-tistic" come alive in this fun take on being a little artist.

Absolutely love this book! Wonderful colors and I love that the boys name is Art. Can't wait to read it to my kiddos in class!

As always, Patrick McDonnell finds the right words and the right illustrations to remind you how great a human soul can be.

Excellent read

Loved this book. My students went right to work after trying what Art had in the book.

A precious little book for young and old.
