Wabi Sabi

Wabi Sabi, by Mark Reibstein (author), illustrations by Ed Young

Last week at the library, my 4 year old son found a gem of a book.  It was a quick trip so I just put it in our bag and didn’t get a good look at it until we got home.  Wow.  It is beautiful.  I am completely charmed by the illustrations and the story.  I highly recommend this to all parents who read to their children and to art teachers.  I took it to an art lesson I teach to children and read it to them.  We talked about the pictures and the message of the book, then we did some collage pictures.  The children were very interested in the book and seemed inspired when they sat down to do their own art.
