Illustrated by Pamela Zagarenski. I must confess: we read this book last week but I don’t remember what was it about (except a tiger and a girl…). I do remember the pictures, though. To come back? I’m not sure…

This book nicely illustrates rather problematic concept. The author offers some sweet story about the importance of an encouragement, but he ignores the fact that obsessive work cannot turn one into an artist, and that being productive does not mean mastering a craft (nor art).
Reading many bad books for children makes me realize how well this dot story captures the problems with children’s literature. The bad book authors follow the recipe: just be productive and reproduce the same motive in slightly different forms and others will regard you as an artist, and will admire you.
No, they won’t.
