Reviews
In this engaging, inspiring tale, Reynolds (illustrator of the Judy Moody series) demonstrates the power of a little encouragement. . . . Reynolds pulls off exactly what his young heroine does, creating an impressive work from deceptively simple beginnings. --Publishers Weekly (starred review) With art that seems perfectly suited to the mood and the message of the text, Reynolds inspires with a gentle and generous mantra: 'Just make a mark.' --School Library Journal (starred review) Simplicity itself, like the dot in the title, this small book carries a big message. --Booklist (starred review) A fable about the creative spirit in every child. --Nick Jr. Family Magazine Best Books of the Year This small gem of a book tells the story of Vashti. . . . It's the beginning of a love affair with dots in many different colors, sizes and patterns -- and a marvelous lesson about what art is. --Washington Post Readers can wonder about unsigned works that lie before us all. --Chicago Tribune In other hands this story about the power of the creative spirit could be preachy and overdone, but Reynolds keeps the voice fresh and the message subtle. --Book Links A wise and delightful tale for all ages. --Yellow Brick Road Reynolds' pictures in this parable . . . emphasize that all art, from the most impressive masterpiece to a child's simple scrawl begins the same way and by definition there is no right or wrong way to express oneself -- an important lesson for anyone who is learning something new. --Syndicated Column - Lynne Burke This is a charming fable about faith and art. Reynolds's drawings have just the right lightness and whimsy to keep it all afloat in a cartoony watercolor-washed world. --Boston Globe

    The Dot

    My wife is an art teacher and so she wanted me to order this book. It came in a timely fashion and my wife is really happy with it. I think her kids will love this book.

    Can't draw? PROVE IT! The Dot is a must-read for all!

    I received this book from a family member a few years ago and have since purchased several copies for gifts. Vashti is encouraged/challenged by her art teacher when the teacher hangs Vashti's signed assignment on the wall. Vashti knows she can do better, so she does! Illustrated in simple drawings with vivid colors, The Dot should be read not only by art teachers and students of all ages, but by kids and parents, and really by anyone who's ever been frustrated. You can't draw? PROVE IT!

    This book addresses the frustrations of young artists.

    The Dot by Peter Reynolds is a sweet reminder that art does not need to be fancy to be good. When we put ourselves into the little things we create, loveliness happens. This book can encourage very young artists, the ones who imagine wonderful worlds but their hands can't draw them yet, to start small and go from there. I am an art teacher at an elementary school, and I will be reading this book to all 400 of my little artists.

    An excellent children's book

    This book is great at fostering kids artistic abilities. The reluctant artist, Vashti, is a perfect example of how the main point of art is just to try. This book is the perfect lead in for an art lesson. The illustrations are adorable as well. An excellent choice for the library of creative kids.
