I love this book. My 5-year old loves drawing and this is a book that he loves to use. He mostly just draws a flower for me. But it is easy to follow the pics in the book. It is definately for someone who loves to draw and can follow instructions. The book has Flower on the left page, and empty page on the right side. I wish that there was no blank page, as it leaves the opportunity for the kids to color in the book when I only want to use it as a resource book and not a coloring book.

I was looking for a more in-depth instruction book for drawing flowers and this wasn't it. I believe this book would be wonderful for young artists just starting to draw.

EASY BOOK TO UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW. KIDS OF ANY AGE CAN LEARN HOW TO DRAW FLOWERS

I am artistic and love drawing with my kids. I really like all of Barbara Soloff Levy's books. She uses only a few, uncomplicated steps. My girls (7 & 5 years) can sit down with these books and follow the steps themselves.

I bought this as a gift for a 5 year old. It was a great idea. She loved it.

I gave this book to a 5, 6 and 9 year old child. All were very pleased.

This is a good book because it simplifies the forms of flowers for the artist. You can always add more detail by looking at the actual flowers or photos of the actual flowers, but this is a good starting point.

I bought this one and the How to Draw Dogs for my little cousin who loves being creative and drawing. She really seemed to like them, and I was pleased with the layout and selection. The book provides step by step, easy to follow directions of the development stages from shapes to detailed images. I highly recommend it for any child who loves to draw.

I bought this book for my daughter who is (almost 6) and loves coloring and drawing. The book does not exactly give you a step by step instruction of how to draw each flower but it gives maybe 4-6 pictures of a few steps in each picture. The book is filled with a ton of different flowers and is really a great book. I just think it is a little too hard for a 6 year old to do, but if you are older and love to draw (whether you can draw or not)this book is for you. I think it will also help my daughter with her fine motor skills, which she lacks.

Slightly better than the "faces" issue of this series, but still second rate when compared with the Usborne books. Illustrations are weak and poorly defined.
