Description
Marcie has painted a picture of Giraffe. At first, she loves it! But when Giraffe paints a picture of Marcie, she’s not so sure. "Your art is better than mine. . .," she says, before making a series of FIERCE and SCRIBBLY pictures that capture her creative turmoil. Can Marcie and Giraffe figure out a way to enjoy making art together? This engaging story filled with whimsical illustrations is the perfect way to show children how to use art as a way to express big feelings.
Advance Praise
"Gregory's illustrations are bright and colorful, with a childlike draftsmanship that evokes the best kind of refrigerator art. Initially, negative space is used to highlight the distance between the two pals, but as the story goes on, paint ends up on the floors, walls, and ceiling, bringing Marcie and Giraffe together in joyful splatter. There are multiple lessons here that never feel didactic, making this a perfect storytime choice for learning to cope with jealousy, deal with angry emotions, and make art for art's sake.
