USBORNE BIG DRAWING BOOK*

THE USBORNE BIG DRAWING BOOK

,

by Fiona Watt

Recommended for ages 3 to 12 years

A simple and cute drawing book that uses basic shapes such as triangles, ovals and squares to create varied subjects. Simple step-by-step instructions guide children as they fill the pages with anything from spaceships to bunny rabbits to fairies. More of an activity book than something you would use as art curriculum, this book might serve well at restaurants, on car trips or on a rainy day. Each two-page spread is a different setting, beckoning for different creatures or objects. For example, one page is a town at night and the artist is prompted to draw alley cats atop the walls. The drawing instructions usually have four to six steps, starting with a subject’s most basic shape and gradually adding to it.

An inspiring step-by-step drawing book sure to give little children hours of fun. Children can discover how to draw dolphins diving in the sea, knights guarding a castle, monster faces, buzzing bees and lots, lots more. Perfect for dipping into during a quiet moment, or for getting stuck into during the holidays.
