Let's Paint! is a very sweet book that aims to help kids explore and embrace their creativity, however messy and imperfect.
It is ideal for kids, particularly boys, who don't do much craft because it pushes the idea that ANY idea is a good one and that in the end your painting might not be perfect but it doesn't matter because the important thing is to just have fun and give it your best.
Alborozo is a very gifted artist and you can really feel how passionate his is about helping kids use art to express themselves (he also worked in the props department on the Star Wars and Matrix movies).
This would be a fun book for a preschool or day care centre - it would be a great activity to read and discuss the book together and then send the kids off to create a painting (or two) of their own.
Who'll love it: kids aged 3-5.
Cost: $22.99
Publisher: Allen and Unwin
