'''Longlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal 2013'''
Eric Carle's latest story consists of just 50 words, 10 animal paintings and two pictures of the young artist at work. Simply, a child creates a series of vibrant paintings of animals in unusual, striking colours, including a blue horse, a green lion and a multi-coloured, polka-dotted donkey. My own favourite is the purple fox. The child says, I am a good artist.
Do take a look at [[The Very Hungry Caterpillar Pop-Up Book by Eric Carle|The Very Hungry Caterpillar]]. [[Katie and the Waterlily Pond by James Mayhew]] (about Monet's work) is another picture book written to introduce children to art.
