When a young child gets caught by his
mother painting everything from floors
to doors, he is told that he cannot
paint any more. However the paint in
the top of the closet is too hard to
resist and the child is soon painting
himself from his head to his feet!
David Catrow does a beautiful job of
showing the bright colors that the
child uses not only to paint the house
but himself as well. Black and white
ink drawings cleverly show what has
not been painted yet. Children and
adults of all ages are going to enjoy
singing along with this witty
song/story.

I enjoyed reading this book out loud. I really liked how he painted his legs! The pictures are funny to look at. His chest was painted on with swirls. It was a good book.

I am a Kindergarten teacher. I read this book to my students. They LOVED it and wanted me to read it again as soon as I had finished reading it.
