Beautiful! - Rated
This book is so wonderfully illustrated and the story is engaging and different. I thoroughly recommend it to people who want more than the 'run-of-the mill' stories - this is bound to become a favourite in any household.
Magic - Rated
My 4 year old daughter was given this book for her birthday this year, I admit when I saw it I wasn't sure she'd like it, but how wrong could I be - she loves the book, and it's a joy for me to read. The text has a lovely rhythm and flow to it and the illustrations are quite different to other books aimed at this age group. Our 6 year old usually wants to listen in too, so in terms of age suitability I'd say it is fine for quite a broad age range. The book is about a girl called Shen who is given a magic paintbrush, whatever she paints becomes real as the paint dries, but she is instructed only to paint for poor folk, not for the wealthy. This gets her into trouble when the emperor finds out about the paintbrush and demands that she paint for him. Very enjoyable!
Gorgeous book - Rated
Really recommend this book.
It has lovely pictures and my eldest daughter loves it.
She is 7.
I would recommend for that age onwards.
A classic in every sense - Rated
Beautifully written, wonderfully illustrated, this is a truly wonderful book. My children are big fans of Julia Donaldson & this is a little more "grown up" but not in any way in a negative sense, it's just a step up from "The Gruffalo" & "Room On The Broom" etc - a real treat for all involved, the teller & the listener.
A little girl is given a magic paintbrush by an old man & is told to use it only for good - this she does,painting things which then become real or come to life, allowing her to help her village & the people who live there...then the greedy emperor hears about the magic paintbrush & takes the girl prisoner...what happens next ? Buy this fantastic rhyming story book & find out.
Truly beautiful. - Rated
This is now my favourite story - absolutely beautiful. I read it to my class of year 2 children and they were mesmerised by the story and flow of the text. I would reccommend anyone to read this book to a child to see it's effect.
