This one combines 3 of his cartooning books : Draw a Circle Draw anything, Draw a Square Draw Anything and Draw a Triangle Draw Anything.I have seen this book many times at Michael's and just thought I was cool.I was right. Though it is meant for children ages 4 and up, artists of all ages and levels could enjoy this book.Fun and Simple, this book gets one inspired.Though I wish the templates we made out of something stronger, so that they would last longer, it was a good idea to put them in the book.All in all this is a great book and will make a great gift for an artist you know.

I bought this for my 5 year old son who loves to draw stick people. The figures are mostly simple shapes, but do incorporate other drawing to finish the figure. All in all a good book of good quality. Seems like it will hold up to years of abuse.

I am here to confess that I bought this for myself. And I am about 50 years older than the 4 year old audience targeted here. I have wanted to learn how to draw my whole life and I just don't have a clue. Well, now I do. I appreciate the simplicity! And no, I did not need to use the templates in the back but I am glad they are there. Just in case. :-)

We have spent a lot of hours using this book and I love it. My daughter (7 years old) can create some surprizingly good cartoons with this book.I highly suggest it because it has good step by step details that can be followed and not like some of the crazy art books with 3 steps and a completed amazing drawing.

This cute book breaks down simple drawing into easy steps. First saw this book at Michael's, and bought one for my 10 year old grandson. Wanted another one for his 9 year old sister, and found it at the right price, with free shipping when combined with other items, at . They will be one of the gifts in their Easter baskets.

Great concept, learn to draw with basic shapes. The instructions are easy enough to follow, that my 5 year old was able to draw 6 of the characters without any difficulties. Would recommend for other aspiring artists.

I was teaching a cartooning class at my school and wanted some new material. I found this book at the Art Museum. The children loved it sooo much I ordered a second copy for the classroom. It is almost as worn as the first. I am going back for number three. Excellent.

We got this for the boys for Xmas, but honestly, I am enjoying it for myself also. I have never been good at drawing, but this is easy to follow and very predictable. Our boys are young now, but they are enjoying trying to emulate the pictures. This will easily grow with them and they will only continue to perfect it.
