Detailed description:
With a simple, witty story and free-spirited illustrations, Peter H. Reynolds entices even the stubbornly uncreative among us to make a mark — and follow where it takes us.
Her teacher smiled. “Just make a mark and see where it takes you.”
Art class is over, but Vashti is sitting glued to her chair in front of a blank piece of paper. The words of her teacher are a gentle invitation to express herself. But Vashti can’t draw – she’s no artist. To prove her point, Vashti jabs at a blank sheet of paper to make an unremarkable and angry mark. “There!” she says.
That one little dot marks the beginning of Vashti’s journey of surprise and self-discovery. That special moment is the core of Peter H. Reynolds’s delicate fable about the creative spirit in all of us.

I’m an art therapist and my husband is a teacher. We both love using this with the kids we work with for the message and the beautiful illustrations!

“Inténtalo” es una lección tan simple y muchas veces tan complicada de aplicar. Da igual que no seas el mejor o que directamente seas malo, si no lo intentas nunca mejorarás en nada. Bravo por esta magnífica historia.

Great book for adults and children alike!

Bought this book for my class and it has a cute message. My kiddos were able to follow along.

This is the best book ever. Every teacher and parent and grandparent should read. Kids are kids just a short time. We need to help them grow up loving life and it’s wonders.

This is a second copy for our family. We had one before, and it was so well-loved that it fell apart completely. The story line is very simple, but poignant. A great diving board for a discussion with your kids on how their one small mark can make a huge impact on someone else’s life. Purchased an extra as a gift for my child’s first grade classroom. HIGHLY recommend this book!

I am a primary school teacher, who planned and delivered a school holiday summer reading club online for young readers. The Dot was my first pick for a session, knowing it was age-appropriate, accessible and has lovely illustrations. It is a great text that gives children a familiar school-based situation about a little girl who thinks she can’t do something. It teaches young readers about the power of perseverance and giving things a go i.e. make a mark and see where it takes you!

The story revolves around Vashti, a young girl who discovers her artistic potential through a simple dot. 🎨 Reynolds’ narrative is not just about the act of drawing but a profound journey of self-discovery and confidence-building.
What sets this book apart is its empowering message – that even a small dot can be the starting point for boundless creativity. As a parent, I appreciate how “The Dot” inspires conversations about self-expression, embracing imperfections, and the beauty of individuality. 🌟 It serves as a gentle nudge for both children and adults to take creative leaps and discover their unique talents.
This is a timeless reminder that everyone has the potential to create something extraordinary. 📘✨

Read it at work. Bought it for my kids. Great for teaching them to try new things or things that they don’t feel they are good at.

I really enjoyed this short children’s book. I like the premise, the illustrations are fun, the only downside is that I wish the kindle version would allow you to do a “pinch to zoom” feature or something. There are times, especially on a smaller device, where it would be nice to zoom into some of the illustrations to get a better look. But as far as the book itself, I think it’s wonderful!
