In the heat of the day With the breeze of a fan When your child wants to draw And you say that he canAnd he wants to draw faces Yes, faces so funny So you take out this book (Which costs so little money)And he opens the book And he flips through the pages With cartoony sketches In various stagesThen his little brow furrows With pencil in hand As he tries to find faces Not ugly or bland"Mummy," says he, "These are all rather cheesy Some are quite hard And some are too easyThe clown is too sad And the vampire sucks I think that I'd rather Go draw me some Trucks"I looked at the book And I saw what he meant Although younger children Might well be contentI'd hoped it would show Faces happy and sad Or laughing or yelling Or angry or madIt lacks inspiration The drawings aren't nice You get what you pay for At such a low priceAmanda Richards, July 10, 2008
This does not have the most interesting cartoon characters but it is a book that kids can pick up on their own & do very basic cartoon faces without any help.
Even the little one is sitting down to try and draw the funny faces . The parents are having fun too.
When my grand daughter comes to visit, I like to create a fun environment for her. I bought "How To Draw Funny Faces" for her, and she loved it. Usually she spends no more than 10 minutes on a project or game, but she spent close to an hour drawing the various faces in the book and then hung them on my refrigerator. Great for kids to learn to draw and fun.
I was expecting much more from this book. It rehashes the same expressions over and over again. No directions on how to actually make a funny face, such as changing the expressions of features i.e. raised eyebrows, crossed eyes, dimples at mouth, funny ears. I was disappointed and wouldn't buy this book again.
No bodies in this book. For each face you are given 3-4 steps. Each step adds different elements of the face. Dashed lines indicate lines to be erased. A practice page is adjacent to the instruction page. However, the practice page has the next project on the other side. I would suggest a drawing pad for practice and tracing paper for more challenging projects. I plan on sitting down with my grandson to do the first drawing, show him how some of the features look like letters(O,S,D,C,W, J) explain the dashes and have him use the tracing paper for the faces he feels are difficult. I would have given it 5 stars if it had a practice page which could be removed.
I ordered this book for my 5 year old and it is a lot of fun. The steps are very easy to follow, something I have found not to be the case in other "how to draw" books. Enjoy.
entertained my 10 year old nephew for hours as made faces for everyone he knew...
