Review:
I have had this book on my shelf since BEA 2013, I met the
amazing artist who put it together and had him even sign the book, but I had
yet to read it. Well…it is a picture book so even better! So I finally sat down
with this adorable book and found myself laughing out loud.
In the book three kids come across a bag of sidewalk chalk
and realize that it is magic, whatever they draw comes to life. So the girls
draw cute things like butterflies while the little boy decides on something
bigger – much bigger.
The illustrations in the books make it absolutely wonderful,
Bill Thompson is amazing. I love the idea that all it takes is some chalk and
some creativity and so many marvelous things can happen. A wonderful book for your not-yet readers and
summer adventures.
