4.0 out of 5 stars A fun book, December 29, 2000

By A Customer

I purchased this for my 7 year old granddaughter - we both enjoyed it! The book includes paints and a rock. Instructions include how to mix the paints for different colors and a myriad of examples and inspirations. If the stone you found does not already suggest something, there are many examples of things you can paint: one side says 'Turn me over' the reverse says 'Thank you'. I have found most Klutz books to be easy to follow and lots of fun. Great pictures!

5.0 out of 5 stars Allowing for creativity!, November 27, 2001

Super choice for a stocking stuffer. Let your child use their imagination. My son loves rocks, and loves art, so this was a number one choice for us. I also reccomend "Pipe Cleaners Gone" and "A Look Inside Dinosaurs".

This book was used in an art class that my daughter was in. She loved it so much that I am going to order it for us. The truth is I got to paint a rock too, and I am dying to do more. It has great illustrations with lots of ideas.
