Description
This ingenious full-color book brings together art instructions and fun facts. Young readers will love learning about animals, transport, costumes, sports and more as they grow in artistic confidence. The simple, step-by-step instructions in this book have been carefully designed to make drawing easy. Each project features up to nine steps, with each step introducing new strokes in a different color, for maximum clarity. Each double-page spread also introduces intriguing ideas about the animals that readers are drawing. • As they sketch a tiger's stripes, they can learn why tigers need stripes. • While they are drawing a ship's sails, they can think about how sailors angle them to change the ship's direction. • While drawing a tree, they can think about how its leaves capture the sun's energy. This book really puts the "art" into "smart!" Ideal for children aged 6+.
