On our most recent trip to the library, we once again found a fabulous book on the New Books shelf. I don't usually go for wordless books, but after a quick look at Chalk
Because there are no words, I handed it to C the first evening and told him to read it while I stepped away for a minute. I came back and he was almost done. He loved it! M read it with her daddy that night as well, and they had a lot of fun with the story. I really think this book would appeal to many ages. I know as an adult, I thought it was pretty cool. The illustrations are very sharp and magical ~ especially the page where we see the butterflies starting to emerge from the chalk drawings.
I highly recommend Chalk
This review was written based on a copy of Chalk that I borrowed from the library.
