5.0 out of 5 stars High Quality, January 11, 2007
By 
Timothy's (Pottsville, PA) - See all my reviews
My son (19) is into art and sketching. I had bought other sketchbooks but they were cheap. This one is excellent, the paper is thick, is bound very well, the charcoal and pencils are made of high quality and last a long time. Don't waste your money on other cheaper/cheezy products, this is a keeper.

Defenetly a true inspiration. This book will show you apreciation for your sketching and its importance. And it shows you love for the materials. Ever since I got this kit I followed the book and I've learned to look at my surroundings the way it should. I liked this a lot! the materials that come with the kit are great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginners, December 26, 2003
By 
Angela J. Buchanan (Napa, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sketchbook Kit: An Artist's Guide to Techniques, Materials, and Projects (Journal)
My son is pleased that he finally has different types of mediums to use, and a book to show him how to utilize them properly. He is looking forward to using it, soon after he is done with all the video games from Christams! He is only 8, but has a great eye for detail, and I think this is definitely a good starter for his mature senses.
