I read the children’s book called, ‘The
Magic Paintbrush.’
This children’s book was written by Julia
Donaldson and illustrated by Joel Stewart.
It’s a delightful children’s rhyming picture
book that tells the tale of a young girl called Shen and a magical paintbrush.
One day a wise man gave Shen a
wonderful gift. A paintbrush that transformed everything she painted into
reality. The wise man also warned Shen that she must only use the magic
paintbrush to help the poor, not the rich.
Back in the village Shen painted each
villager whatever they needed.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t long before
the Emperor heard of Shen and her magic paintbrush. He wanted a tree made of
gold but Shen refused and was imprisoned.
What will Shen do now?
Will she paint a golden tree for the
Emperor so she can be set free or will Shen find a way to escape?
A wonderful story, that both adults and
children will like, very inspirational.
Why not read the book or watch it on
YouTube then you can tell me what you think?
