Marc, Franz, 1880-1916
Painting

Genre: Realistic Fiction
A young boy paints animals other colors then the ones they have in nature after painting a blue horse. There is information on Franz Marc in the back of the book. This is a great book to read aloud with a very young child. For a more interactive story time I think you could ask your listeners what color the animals are in the book and what color they are in real life. I will use it to lower elementary. ( )
