Magic Painting Book
“This book is similar to the paint with water books we had as children, but is SO MUCH BETTER! The dynamic black and white illustrations are already stunning without any color, but the magic begins when you dip your brush into water and start coloring. The “black” lines are actually hidden pockets of color that disperse throughout the page differently depending on how you move your brush pen and blend colors. My 4 year old loves this, and so do I! I have to admit that I wanted to do a full page all by myself! A great gift, and is sure to bring a few hours of entertainment to any child.”

Magic Painting Consultant Review:
This is a book that you might order for your child, and then end up loving for yourself! It’s fascinating to watch the colors appear as you paint with just water. I was mesmerized the first time I watched my son paint with the book and asked – no begged – to give it a try! It’s a really satisfying introduction to water colors, too, for children that you don’t quite trust with paints! Since all the Magic Painting books use is water there is no worry about a mess.

Reviews for "The Joy of Painting with Usborne Magic Painting"
1. Samantha - 1 star
I was extremely disappointed with the Usborne magic painting book. The whole concept of the book is that the pictures magically appear when you paint over them with water, but that was far from the case. The pictures barely showed up, and it was more like just a few watermarks on the page. The whole experience was underwhelming and a waste of money. I would not recommend this book to anyone.
2. Jake - 2 stars
I bought the Usborne magic painting book for my 5-year-old daughter, thinking it would be a fun and interactive activity for her. However, we both ended up frustrated with the results. The pictures were difficult to see, and even when we followed the instructions meticulously, the colors were dull and muddy. The book did not deliver on its promise of magical painting, and my daughter quickly lost interest. It was a letdown.
3. Emily - 2 stars
I had high hopes for the Usborne magic painting book, as it seemed like a creative and engaging activity for my kids. Unfortunately, the execution fell flat. The pictures were too faint and barely visible, even after multiple coats of water. The paper quality was also subpar, as it started peeling and tearing easily. Overall, the experience was frustrating and not worth the price. I would not recommend this book for anyone looking for a fun painting activity.
