Wonderful, classic children's instruction book.,

Ce commentaire est de: Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals (Paperback)
As a kid, I loved to draw, and I loved this book! The author provides simple, step-by-step pictorial guidelines easy enough for young children to follow: if they can read the instructions, they can draw the animals in the book. At each step, there is a basic instruction such as "make a green triangle" or "add two squiggly lines." The instructions are accompanied by both a drawing of whatever it is to be added and a drawing of the animal-in-progress as a whole. Not only is this book fun for children, it's great for book reports and other school projects. Even adults will appreciate the ease at which this book helps them to produce realistic-looking animals while also enjoying the author's humorous style. This favorite book of childhood has become a cherished adult possession.

Great resource book for learning to draw,
Ce commentaire est de: Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals (Paperback)
I bought these books for my nephew for Christmas, and although they didn't have the WOW factor of the iPod Touch he got from Santa, I thought they were just what I hoped they would be and that he will appreciate the help they will provide for illustrating his schoolwork and perhaps foster a love of drawing in general.

A Champion of Creativity,

Ce commentaire est de: Ed Emberley's Drawing Book of Animals (Paperback)
Those wretched art classes to which we were all subjected as children left me in daily agony - and of course wouldn't my older sister just have to be a spectacularly gifted artist. My mother took pity on my suffering and bought me this wonderful book when I was six. It was a balm to my artistic handicap and an immeasurable boost to my confidence when I finally drew the dragon! Looking back now, I believe that Mr. Emberley's books would benefit any child, whether naturally artistic or crying over watercolor class. In an era when children's imaginations are saturated with Disney and TV cartoon notions of art, Mr. Emberley can give them simple tools with which to carve a path back to their own creativity.
