About the book (from the dust jacket)
This is the story of a boy named Pablo who had a set of paints and started to paint a picture on a fence in a city.

You know what happened?

People stopped to watch Pablo paint. And pretty soon people stopped to watch people watch Pablo paint; and cars stopped, and trucks, as well as dogs, and traffic was blocked so people could watch people watch people watch people watch people watch Pablo paint.

Did Pablo finish his picture? What was it like? Did the people wait to see? You can have fun finding the answers in this book.
