Written by Audrey Vernick, Illustrated by Heather Fox
When I Redraw the World is a really cute book that takes you through the imagination of what the perfect world would be like for a child. The illustrations are colorful and fun. It is a fun book to read.
This book would be a fun read a loud. You could also use it as an introduction to an activity where each child draws their own world, the way they would like it. You could brainstorm ideas with the class and then allow them to redraw their world. I would read this book to grade levels K-3.
