Reviewed by ChamomileWhat would your response be to a group of small people, overlooking you,
to look at the masterpiece you’d lovingly made for them?
How would you feel by their admiration of your magnificent creation,
as they ignore your wonderfully creative hands?
Would you feel sad? Frustrated? Angry?
Imagine your relief when they leave your invisible side.
Picture your joy and gratitude with their replacement –
and appreciative group marvelling at your masterpiece,
undoubtedly produced by your love.
Would you feel glad,
grateful, relieved, believed,
like the Artist in this story felt?
The Artist’s Page by Debra Rufini is a wonderful children’s picture book that can be enjoyed with readers both young and old! Beautifully illustrated by Dina Kalo, this story tells of God’s love and His incredible gift. Rufini takes readers on a journey of looking at how different people might see of respond to this magnificent gift, and how sometimes they also choose to reject it.
This story is suitable, but the focus of the story might be slightly lost on younger children, and will have more meaning for those who read it more than once and over time.
I loved reading this story, and really felt it brought the story and lessons to life in a unique and beautiful way! Filled with creative imagery and enticing colors, The Artist’s Page is a pleasure to read!
