Description

<p>Have you ever seen a &quot;work of art&quot; worth millions, which looks like something your child just brought home from school?</p><p>The dual perspective of &quot;Beauty Is in the Eye of the Beholder&quot; and just a little bit of &quot;The Emperor's New Clothes&quot; is evident in this clever artwork story of a child who paints a fingerpaint print in class and then loses it in the wind on the way home.</p><p>Illustrated from the point of view of a child, whose identity is left to the imagination of the reader since all of the illustrations are what the child sees, the fingerpaint print is interpreted by official &quot;judges&quot; as well as by bystanders. Should people be influenced by what others see, or use their own self-esteem to make their own judgments? This coloring book version allows children to illustrate their own version of the book, and even to create a &quot;masterpiece&quot; of their own!</p><p>This is the fourth rhyming children's coloring book by this award-winning author, whose other bestselling books include David's ADHD, My Little Angel, The Golden Rule, Mice &amp; Spiders &amp; Webs...Oh My!, Manner-Man, Gimme-Jimmy, The Magic Word, Peter and the Whimper-Whineys and Santa's Birthday Gift.</p><p><strong>About The Author:</strong> Former teacher Sherrill S.

Story Behind The Book

I have been a teacher for 19 years. I have taught reading readiness and reading as a pre-school teacher & as a primary school teacher. My reading program was inspired by God because it was very successful. One of my children came into my class not knowing the alphabet and by the time he finished 2nd grade he was at an upper third grade level, all in one year.

This has an important bearing on the future of mankind. This author's experiences have enabled him to see, to understand and to present to others, the success he has had with the elements expressed in this book. It is a comprehensive and well-worded presentation<span class="Apple-converted-space"></span></span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:#ffffff;font-size:small;float:none;">of tried-and-true methods he has used. What he offers here should prove invaluable to parents and educators alike. A worthwhile read.  Guy Mendie<br /></span><span style="color:#000000;font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:normal;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:#ffffff;font-size:small;float:none;">I find the techniques in this book extremely effective, they are easy to follow and will absolutely make a difference in a child's reading ability! Take the time to do a few of the exercises and simply sit back and watch the results. The author Terry Hueffed is a good teacher, I still have an article in the paper about his superior techniques and this is when he was just starting his teaching career, now he has years of experience to bring you his most effective, quick strategies at your fingertips. Both teachers and parents can benefit from many of the techniques and resources he provides. Growing up I was taught many of these techniques and I was always leaps and bounds above the average reading level for my class, later I was placed into accelerated english classes, I have a BS in Journalism and I attribute these skill-sets to the techniques I learned, many of them described thoroughly in this small gem of a book!
