    The Children’s Book Review | June 4, 2018

    A journey of friendship, family, and the courage to hold onto dreams . . .

    The Boy Who Painted the WorldThe Boy Who Painted the World

    Written by Melody J. Bremen

    Publisher’s Synopsis: Indigo is a boy with a dream.

    He spends his mornings in a refrigerator box, his afternoons shoveling snow, and his nights in the basement of a homeless shelter. But during every free moment, he draws and dreams of becoming a famous artist.

    His best friend Jade looks after him, but she is arrested for shoplifting and he’s left all alone. With his box of pencils under his arm, he sets out on a quest to search for Jade and discovers a whole new world… full of the art he loves.

    His journey brings him friendship, family, and the courage to hold onto his dreams.

    Ages 9-12 | Publisher: CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform | July 7, 2017 | ISBN-13: 978-1548663353

      What a sweet book that introduces young ones to people from all walks of life. I like that there’s art supplies to encourage the creative expression in kids. My 6 year old grandson loves artwork and his mother graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art specializing in Painting Landscapes and Photography. Currently she’s a graphic designer for a jewelry company.
