How to Draw: Easy Step-by-Step Drawings! (Dover How to Draw)

Great for my 5 year old grandson. He can do on his own while Mom makes supper! Uses eye-hand coordination, following patterns and implied directions, improves pencil skills without being letters-lots of fun while learning that doesn't feel like instruction. He loves it!

Simple book for grand daughter she loves to draw, color, paint, anything artsy. At 3yo she sit down and drew a bird correctly, I knew she took after her ole granny then. :)

My Grandson is really enjoying this…. He is six years old and loves to draw

I really enjoyed using this book, "How to Draw" by Barbara Soloff Levy, to learn some very basic drawing techniques! I have actually drawn a few things that were very recognizable! A first for me! And you will too! There were a few times when I was working on "A to B", "B to C", when I suddenly felt like the author was up on "E to F" with no idea how to get there! But it didn't happen often and I always figured a way! The great thing about using a book you can just keep going back until you are satisfied, the bummer about using a book, there's no one handy to ask all the hundreds of questions you will have have as you move forward. I have purchased a couple other beginner books by different authors to try out, I'll try to do some comparisons between them. After the first few pages I started practicing in a small sketching pad. I have 6 grand babies who may want to try these out as they get older! This way everyone will have their own notepad to get started. I would suggest this book for anyone who thinks they can't draw, it will prove you wrong! I've discovered anyone can draw you just may need some help getting started!

Educational book for a young student.

I got this as a fun little Christmas gift for one of my nephews to help him learn to draw better in a fun way! He is always getting on our computer here and playing around in the "Paint" program so I thought this would be a fun little step up from that if he wanted to try it. I think he is enjoying it quite a bit but sometimes he doesn't focus as well as he should on most things unfortunately.

Book arrived on time however was torn at the bottom corner along with a few pages! So sad

I ordered/sent this for my 4 yo grandson. I'm told he loved it, and drew the apple and pear as soon as he opened it. 👍

Excelente libro para iniciar a dibujar. Para cada dibujo contiene 2 páginas, una con ejercicios y otra con espacio en blanco para practicar. Amazon lo tiene a un excelente precio, así que compré varios, para mis hijos y para tener en casa para regalar. Me parece que no es para niños menores de 5 años, aunque dependerá de las habilidades e interés que cada niño muestre para dibujar. Pero creo que es perfecto para niños de 6 años en adelante.

I actually ordered this book for my husband who is constantly complaining that out three year old is asking him to draw and that he is terrible at it. It made for a laugh nut I was a bit disappointed by the very limited contents. Some shapes are too basic even for the untalented. Also very limited content. We will see how our daughter enjoys it when she gets older.

Good book! Very simple instructions and demonstrates step by step for kids. Easy to follow. Even my 4 year old is able to use it as the directions are simple. Very visually appealing for the visual learners

Easy enough for my 5 year old to use but my 8 year old enjoys it as well. We have been drawing as a family in the evenings. I have brought other copies to bundle with craft theme birthday presents.

Perfect my daughter is going to love it
