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

Reviews

Genre: Mystery/ Suspense/ Romance<br />Nymph Rating: 4 Nymphs<br />Literary Nymphs Reviewer: Sphinx Minx<br /><br />Casey Rowan is spending the weekend with her dear friends, Tessa and Donald Broughton. But when she wanders downstairs in the morning, she finds Donald dead and Tessa clinging to life.<br /><br />She searches for the attacker, without the approval of DCI Roderick Carlisle of the Devon police department. She discovers that her friends may not be the perfect couple she had pictured.<br /><br />Casey is an intelligent woman, a journalist with ideals. Could the murder be traced to the memoirs Don was writing? Or was the killer an unstable client of psychologist Tessa?<br /><br />The author touches on the world of big-time art theft and Neo-Naziism in London. And Casey finds that a cop, trying to right his own wrongs, can ignite passion deep within her.<br /><br />The author gives a clear picture of a chilling winter in the English countryside, and presents believable, complex characters. I still had some questions at the end, but I found the story thought-provoking and satisfying.
