5.0 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL! Makes drawing cartoons easy!, August 27, 1998

This review is from: Cartooning with Math (Paperback)

"Cartooning with Math" is a fun book that makes it so simple to draw cartoons that my 6-year-old can do it. Also, it helps to teach and reinforce many math skills. Even if your child is very young, he or she can do all of the cartoons in the book. Children do not need to have mathematical skills to do the drawings, but they will definitely look at math in a new way after doing the drawings in the book. Older children will also love this book because it shows them easy ways to draw cool cartoon characters.
