I Ain't Gonna Paint No More! (Ala Notable Children's ... (ISBN 0152024883)

Too clever for words!:
This books is brilliant. If you have a child who doesn't like reading, try this book. It has great rhyming, fantastic pictures and is very cheeky. I can't get enough of it and keep reading it myself. My daughter is a big fan too! A must for any home book collection!I Ain't Gonna Paint No More! (Ala Notable Children's Books. Younger Readers (Awards))

Sing & "Paint" Along:
My son and I were introduced to this book in his music class. The teacher gave all the kids dry paint brushes while she read (sang) the book to them. As the little boy in the story paints each body part a new and interesting color, the children in class are encouraged to "paint" along. What a great way to teach kids about colors and body parts. Oh what the heck, I guess I'll paint my neck! Enjoy

Simply Wonderful!:
I absolutely love this book! The illustrations and colors are just fantastic. This is by far one of the greatest children's books I have come across. That being said, I am a little surprised by the negative comments regarding this book. First of all, everyone knows that the phrase "I ain't gonna paint no more" is not proper english. It's just an expression... lighten up. Second of all, maybe the child in the book is "unruly." The story, and the title for that matter, isn't meant to be taken literally. Most books, TV shows, and movies aren't meant to be taken literally either. If you have several kids under the age of 6 who hit each other with bricks and abuse animals, then you've got far more serious things to worry about besides criticizing a children's book.

One of the best children's books Ever!:
This is such a cute book. I read it to my second grade art students and they loved it! The rhyming is very fun and they enjoyed using the rhyme to guess what would happen next in the story. This is one of the most adorable children's books I've ever seen.

Brilliant:
This is a wonderful book for young children. A book that is best sung to. I have this both in my preschool classroom and I just bought it for my son. Highly recommend.
