[ISLMA-Share] Third grade book for boy who loves art

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

What about *The Sixty-Eight Rooms* by Malone. Might be a little high, but
probably not as as high as Chasing Vermeer.  Also, not a chapter book but I
really liked *Drawing From Memory* by Allan Say.  Autobiography with lots
of illustrations about becoming an artist.
