I Ain't Gonna Paint No More!


I have a lot of favorite books but this year I found this book by Karen Beaumont and I fell instantly in love. I Ain't Gonna Paint No More! My students love it! So if you get a chance check it out and let me know if you like it too. What I love about this book are the colorful illustrations, rhyming words and the repeating phrase, I Ain't Gonna Paint No More!

One of my parents gave me a plaque with this quote on it.  This was a parent that I helped get her GED.
