Editorial Review:

Product Description:
"What a gorgeous painting," exclaimed the judge of Ms. Fair's first-grade art contest. "What a beautiful rabbit!"

For Emily, the words are a shock.

Her painting is of her dog, Thor. Not a rabbit.

But instead of thinking: What's wrong with this judge? Emily takes the words, and the judgment, to heart.

Just as she takes her art.

Not everyone, not Ms. Fair, or even Emily's best friend, Kelly, can see that.

At first.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Emily's Art a Wonder of Color
There's a girl named Emily. She has a friend that loves her art. In the story there is an art contest. Will she win the contest? My name is Nisa when I read this I coudn't look away! I like this book because I really love art!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - captures the down side of "healthy" competition
My 6 year old daughter had just experienced the kind of unjust judgement captured in this book a day before we serendipitously picked it up at the library. Emily becomes transparent after her work is rejected. My daughter totally connected with that feeling. And she also recognized the power of a friends' support that is portrayed in this book as well. Lovely. Art is great too.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Must Have
This book is fabulous.My children love it. It offers lots of chances to discuss feeling and how we feel about ourselves. We love the illustrations. We love this book



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - beautiful pics & a life lesson
This was a wonderful book about not giving up on the things you enjoy because of what someone else thinks! Emily learns that one persons rock is the next mans diamond. What makes us different makes us special!
Our favorite book = Matthew A.B.C. - same author
