    • Fun read aloud
Hilarious story and great for read aloud because each art supply has their own personality

    • Perfect. Bright and colorful pictures
My five year old loves this story. He loves art and corny jokes with a silly storyline. Perfect. Bright and colorful pictures.

    • Not For Group Read Alouds
I absolutely LOVE this book!! So, so cute and fun!! Perfect for reading to your little one in your lap. I teach a preschool/elementary arts and crafts class at a homeschool co-op and this didn't go over super well. The illustrations are fabulous and every little art supply has something to say which is great but it does make it difficult to read in a classroom setting and have all the kids follow along. Definitely buy the book, it's great, but I don't think I'll be reading it in the classroom again. ... show more

    • A book for children who enjoy using their imagination
Granddaughter having a "art birthday party theme", and this book is cleverly written and fun. I would recommend to others.

    • So Disappointed!
I am an elementary art teacher and I purchased this book to share with my art students. After reading this book, I am beyond disappointed and will NOT share this book with my students. The illustrations are creative but many of the art supplies that comment throughout the book are just inappropriate to share with a class of elementary students. The comments include things such as the pencils talking to one another saying "You've got a sharp mind." "Thanks but that's actually my butt." I could move past the butt joke with arrow pointing to the young boy's butt crack showing as he bends over to draw, but then the poor taste humor continues. Among the discolored humor are jokes about: a marker having "the runs" with the illustration of a tan marker with a tan liquid pool around it referring to diarrhea, the supplies telling jokes "what's the one thing an artist can't draw?... A good wage", "why did the paint come home from work sad?.... Because he was just canned", Why did the large painter go to the paint store?...Because he wanted to get thinner". There are also several comments with undertones referring to alcohol: The scissors saying to the glue "Hey buddy, you're cut off", "Things were getting pretty lively so we all remembered to have lots of water", a marker states "I've been dry for quite a while now... and it feels great". In summery, although the illustrations are interesting and eye catching, the humor is often inappropriate for the target audience (young children). There are some pages that are fine and appropriate but there are many pages that include inappropriate humor: jokes about butts, diarrhea, alcohol, artists= poor wages, getting fired, overweight painters.... It is too bad because this book had a lot of potential. ... show more

    • Fun book for toddler artists
For my son, who is 2.5 years old, gives this 5 stars (I lean toward 4). We've had this book for almost 3 weeks and he wants us to read it almost daily and several times a day in fact. He enjoys art at his age, so I think he likes the art supplies coming to life through one-liners and jokes. He's even worked on the knock knock jokes! The illustrations are colorful and fun, and he loves the art supplies having funny faces on them. If your little one is into art, this is a fun book to share. It has some jokes adults will get, so that has been fun for me. ... show more

Oh my gosh this book is amazing! The illustrations are vibrant and exciting, the story is a hoot, with PLENTY of adult witticisms for the grown up ready to enjoy. I LOVED IT!
