Eek! My Ink!

In this lyrical story, a child discovers that drips, spills, and splatters from her colorful palette create their own "accidental" -and powerful images. Imagination ignites as she joyously embraces various paint smears and smudges, and a world of wonder emerges where there are no mistakes. Eek! My Ink! captures the kindness of self-love, and offers the gift of a colorful world.
