BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE 

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE 

This is a cute, colorful story about a koala who visits a museum, is inspired by the art and decides to become an artist! 

The text is simple and the art is what really brings excitement and life to the story. I loved the illustration style, with bold line drawings and bright splashes of color. I loved Izzy's enthusiasm for experimenting with different ways of painting. This would be a great, quick read-aloud before allowing young students to create art, encouraging them to explore their own unique creativity.
