expert will find something new in this book. In simple language, More Than Painting explains developmental theory and research as it applies to the creative arts."
—Rochelle C. Paul, interim director, Early Childhood Development Program, Central Ohio Technical College

"I would recommend More Than Painting to everyone! It has exciting art activities to do with children, and they are easy to understand and put together. I really like the part where the activity tells what the child will learn." —Mary H. Adkins, CDA and early childhood instructor, Apollo Career Center

"All of the More Than . . . series have gone to my classes for students to see. It is such a teacher-friendly format, one that works well for teachers at various levels of education and experience. Everything is laid out for the teacher: goals, materials, descriptions of activities; with enough theoretical framework provided at the outset to help students and teachers understand the rationale for the activities. These books should be in every child care center's resource room."
—Louise E. Bower, professor of education, University of Cincinnati

"I used More Than Painting, Much More Than Counting, and More Than Singing in Curriculum Development for Child Care Professionals. All of the titles in this series have a lot to offer practicing teachers who are always looking for clearly written practical applications."
—Sharon Schneeberger, instructor, University of Missouri-Columbia
