A young boy feels his drawings of puppies look like mush and his cars look like lumps or boxes.  Since he doesn’t believe he can draw, he colors instead.  Unlike coloring in a coloring book, he just uses different hues and lines to express feelings.  Until the last page the boy is a grayscale pencil sketch. With the self-portrait on the last page, the boy appears in color showing the uniqueness and depth of his feelings.

A wonderful resource for art teachers, young artists, or to teach self-acceptance.
