What is Face Painting about?

What can you become with a little face paint? Meet children transformed into colourful butterflies, fierce pirates, playful animals and spooky monsters. Bright photographs show each painted face clearly, while simple words encourage young readers to talk about the designs, spot details and share their own ideas. This lively non-fiction book introduces face painting through familiar characters and patterns, making it easy for children to join in, describe what they see and imagine which design they would choose.
