Yasmin the Painter
Saadia Faruqi, Hatem Aly
Yasmin's painting for the art contest is due Friday, but she has lots of excuses for putting it off. She doesn't know what to paint, she doesn't think she's any good, and painting is messy. Turns out a mess is just what Yasmin needs for inspiration!

I like it when she keeps on trying with her painting

It made me feel interested. She realises that making a mess is ok. Actually, it’s art!

Yasmin found out in her class there was a competition coming up, it was art. She was worried as she wasn't good at Art. She did well as she did a cool painting and won! it was ok but a bit boring really nothing much happened so am reading a longer book next time. I recommend for younger children like 4/5.

I feel a bit nervous when I do painting too but when I do it I think it is fun like Yasmin. I would recommend it to people who like art.

I think it was a nice story because Yasmin liked painting and I enjoy it too. I liked Ms. Alex best because she seemed like a nice teacher. I think my friends might like this book. I found it hard to use the Urdu words as I don't call my mum and dad these words. There were some hard and long words to read- announcement and competition.

I liked this story because it was about art and they competion and Yasmin was a afraid she was not going to win, but in the end she did win and famouse painter she saw on video came to see her and teach her how to paint. My favourite character is Yasmin because she likes to paint just like me.
