My grandkids (and their parents as I see them drawing on these too) love these books. For the younger ones I prefer the pages that already have designs/figures similar to a coloring book on them to color in. Some of the Scratch and Sketch books do not have this coloring book designs and are black blank pages so note if the one you purchase does or has printed designs. The 13 years and older children prefer to do their own artwork designs and there are sketch books for them as well. I bought these to amuse the children on the airplane and later church and it worked great! They were busy, quiet, and happy drawing. A pencil type tool is included (just no lead in it). They loves to see what color is underneath the black. Plus there are a LOT of choices to choose from. Again note some have the coloring book designs and others are blank pages.

The idea behind these books is great, but they make a pretty big mess--black dust gets everywhere! It got all over my daughter's hands and clothes and on my furniture. It didn't leave any stains, luckily, but I thought I remembered the scratch-off part not being so dusty in these kinds of activities when I was a kid. If the black coating in these books came off more like the foil does in scratch-off kinds of things, I would rate it a 4 or 5, but I won't be buying these books again.

I purchased this as a present for my 6 year old nephew. I was not there to see his reaction, but his dad told me that "He loves it, he immediately opened the book, sat down and started to draw. The book was well thought out." So glad it worked out, I wish I could have seen it in person, but it was a long distance gift. If you are buying a gift long distance, this would be a good option.

These are great. They are perfect for driving/ road trips you don't have to pack crayons, pencils, paper ,etc. Just the book and it comes with a scratch stick and the holder is built in the book. I have bought several different ones of these. With the pictures for my daughter who hates to color and doesn't like pictures and the books that just have the plain doodle scratch paper in them for my creative daughter.

My four and give year old can be given one of these books, and I won't hear a peep out of her. Fantastic for those who like to draw, and for those are hesitant about drawing (helps build confidence in fine-motor skills and ability).

I bought At the Zoo for my 3 yr old. It has the trace-along pages, which is good for younger kids. I bought Fashion Show for my 4 yr old but it doesn't have the trace-along pages and she didn't like that one much. At the Zoo has lovely pictures suitable for any child (boy or girl). It also has blank paper in the back for kids to practice their drawing skills.

I bought this for christmas for my seven year old and she absolutely loves it, it keeps her busy on trips or at home. It has lots of pages that they can create pictures. I bought one for my other daughter too and she also loves it. Great book!

One of my granddaughters got one for her birthday and she loved it so much that I bought several different ones to give to my grandchildren for Christmas. They were a real hit….they provide hours of fun and allow for creativity too. Even my grandsons loved them.
