Embracing Child Art: Projects for Grownups to Keep and Treasure

Summary: Finally....
Review: ...a wonderfully comprehensive book that tells you what to do with all the artwork your kids bring home from school and you know you'll do guilt over if you throw it away!! Creative projects that actually make nice things (well the two I've done so far) It also talks a lot about what art means to children which is a refreshingly different take on art than adults have. Excellent book. I hope you'll enjoy it, I did.

Summary: Editorial problem
Review: There are two pieces of student artword on page 99 of the book. The people that are given credit are not the students art teacher in both pieces of art work. I am the art teacher at Pathfinder Elementary School and my name is Julie A. Smith. The two students are in my classroom. I did contact the editor and the author of the book. They have both apologized and will correct the error in the next printing.
