<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When told not to paint the walls, this spirited, creative child paints himself instead! A perfect story for the oversized board book format, to the tune of "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More." Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A <i>New York Times</i> best-selling masterpiece featuring a sing-song rhyming text and humorous energetic illustrations about a spirited child and outside-the-box, creative thinking. <p/> When the child gets caught painting everything from the ceiling to the floor, Mama says "Ya ain't a-gonna paint no more!" But nothing will keep this artist from painting! Written to the familiar tune "It Ain't Gonna Rain No More," the text bounces alongside vibrant stylized pen-and-ink drawings, while page-turns offer up a fun read-aloud guessing game in which kids will delightfully participate. What will the child paint next? "So I take some red and I paint my . . . HEAD!" Silliness paired with the ruckus read-aloud appeal will have every reader begging for repeat reads.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>American Library Association Notable Book Catrow splashes color all over, uses white space cleverly, and includes playful flourishes, such as a marching row of ants on the boy's arm and Easter egg designs on his leg. Elongated figures and exaggerated expressions match the silly tone of the story, and the concerned dog who observes the antics is particularly amusing. With rhymes that invite audience participation and scenes that draw the eye, this is a strong storytime choice. - <i>School Library Journal</i> Given the plot's premise, Catrow's humorously hyperbolic art fittingly takes center stage here, growing increasingly flamboyant and electric as the boy embellishes more and more of his anatomy-and his playful pooch becomes equally well decorated. - <i>Publisher's Weekly</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>KAREN BEAUMONT</b>'s flair for rhythm and rhyme was evident in <i>I Like Myself!, </i> her first book with David Catrow. She lives in Capitola, California.<br><b>DAVID CATROW </b>is a political cartoonist and the illustrator of many popular books for children, including the Book Sense 76 Top Ten selection <i>Don't Take Your Snake for a Stroll</i> by Karin Ireland.
