My daughter specifically requested this for Christmas since she is much into art this year. She loved it. It was exactly as described, the materials were decent quality and the book was educational as well as just plain fun. I would definitely recommend it for any child who is interested in art.

This was a Christmas gift for my nephew. It'll be hard to compete with Wii games, but as an adult, I thought this was an amazing book! In fact, we had 4 educators in the room when this was opened and every single one took a look at the book and raved about it. It presents art in a wonderful way for an elementary or even preschool-aged child and encourages creativity.
