    About this ebook

    In this delightful tale of the power of the imagination, Art's supplies come to life in the studio, creating mayhem and magic -- and art! Pastels, pencils and paints, crayons, brushes and markers, everything gets in on the act of creating a mess-terpiece of fun. Chris Tougas' brilliant illustrations and clever text explore the essence of the creative process in a way that children will understand.

      Your Inspirations!

      I saw the vintage florals paper pad from Crafter's Companion and I just fell in love! It has extra pages inside with lots of die-cut elements, so I know they would be perfect to display in a pop-up box card. Besides the verse on the front, I felt I d

      Happy Home

      Tougas, Chris. Art's Supplies. Orca Book Publishers, 2010. This is an e-book that I got through Tubmle Books at the LACounty Public Library website. It was free and didn't require a card to access. The main character is a little boy named Art and his supplies. As he turnes to a blank page his supplies add their own abilities to the work. They call it a party. They are having so much fun creating a picture. The illustrations are humourous and engaging. The e-book format is kid-friendly. The message is about enjoying the process of experimenting with your art supplies. It's like a party. I would use this to introduce art to students who are very young. Age Group: 5-8 years old.
    • 3/5
      Very very punny! It's a comedic look at the havoc a boy's art supplies create when they throw a party. Some of the humor about drunken party goers will (hopefully) go over kid's heads.
