Title: I Ain’t Gonna Paint No More!
Author: Karen Beaumont
Illustrator: David Catrow
ISBN #: 0-15-202488-3
Publication Date: 2005

The book is about a boy who just wanted to paint. His mother took away his paint, but that did not stop the boy. He painted his body parts, such as his leg as an Easter egg. His mother catches him and gives him another bath, and luckily this time there is no more paint left for him to make a mess. As a class you could cut out different body parts out of construction paper and him them decorate them. This could just be a fun art lesson, or you could use the concept of mixing colors.
