{"product_id":"i-wish-i-could-draw-9781554983186","title":"I Wish I Could Draw","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen the narrator of this sneakily clever book decides he will try to draw even though he believes he isn't very good at it, a world of silly possibilities opens for him. By the end of the story, he has vanquished a dragon, been given a medal, published a book, and seen his artwork on display in a real museum--and all because he refused to be held back by his own perceived limitations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe narrator of \u003cem\u003eI Wish I Could Draw\u003c\/em\u003e shares a name with creator Cary Fagan and has the same curly hair and glasses. Perhaps most interesting of all, though, the narrator believes he has no artistic talent--just like the Cary Fagan who not only wrote but also bravely and exuberantly illustrated this book. Fortunately for readers, both Cary-the-narrator and Cary-the-children's-book-creator refused to let self-doubt stop them from trying to tell (and draw) the funniest and most exciting story they could think of. The result is a book that delivers plenty of excitement, silly jokes and fun--and also an important message about self-confidence and perseverance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned to look like a child's notebook, \u003cem\u003eI Wish I Could Draw\u003c\/em\u003e will inspire readers to pick up a pencil and let their imaginations do the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn award-winning author of books for children and adults, \u003cb\u003eCary Fagan\u003c\/b\u003e has won the Jewish Book Award and the World Storytelling Award.
