Children love getting to draw in this book, and then reading it again and again with their art telling the story! Adult artists who are first venturing into illustration use this book as a tool for practicing placing their pictures with someone else's text. Look inside at the tips page for more on how to use this I Create Art book for the little (or not so little) artists in your life. "Goodbye Bad Dreams is a story that will delight all children.
