Used books are a great option so grateful for this seller and finding this awesome book. My littles love this great quality fast ship. This book is great for giving success to young drawings and make images that look like things. Great for kids without depth perception. They painted these images on rocks from the yard.

We were amazed at how great the animals looked when she finished ...

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 23, 2015

My 8 year old niece is very artistic and loves animals, so I took a chance and bought this, "how to" books as one of her Christmas presents. I let her open it early during a recent trip home, and was pleasantly surprised at her reaction. I was even more surprised when she spent the next few hours drawing many of the animals using the step by step visual instructions. We were amazed at how great the animals looked when she finished drawing them; we were able to identify which animal it was 99% of the time, (impressive for someone new to drawing).
To draw an animal you follow the a row of, "step by step" pictures which built on each other, and end with a completed animal. For example, to draw a fox, first there was a picture of a circle, then an oval attached to the circle for the body, then the long tail, etc ... down to the whiskers. And since the instructions are all pictorial, she could do these entirely on her own. They were easy enough for her to do, but not so simple for her to become bored and lose interest. There were up about 4 animals you could draw per page, so it will take some time for her to draw all of them, (and knowing my niece, she'll then go back to ones she liked best to improve and perfect them).
II bought another "how to" drawing book from a different author as well, (How to Draw Princesses and Other Fairy Tales by
Barbara Soloff Levy) not knowing if she'd like the way one book taught over the other. Upon opening the book I could see that Ed Emberley's book was far superior for beginning artists. My niece apparently agrees, because despite LOVING all things princess, she flipped through the Princesses "how to" book, then put it aside and spent the rest of the day drawing the animals from Ed Emberly's Drawing Book.
I will definitely be buying more Ed Emberley drawing books in the future!

Drawing Animals for kids ages 6-99!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 29, 2021

Verified Purchase

My co worker/Art Teacher gave me this book 40 years ago! I loved it and used it to sketch the adorable animals for children. I can't draw animals normally, so this was perfect! Now....many years later I bought it for Christmas for our grandkids (ages 6/10)....it will be perfect for them as they love to draw. Ed E. gives one confidence (as I'm 68!!! LOL!) to be able to produce all the animals he shows us in his book! Now I drew them most of them and send in little cards to the kids, also! Thank you!

HIGHLY suggest!! Daughter who just turned five LOVES it and so do I!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 26, 2016

Verified Purchase

My daughter just turned five years old and she loves doing art and trying to draw. We have gotten other how to draw books but she gets frustrated with them because the steps in between are pretty big difference so it can be hard to follow along. But this book is AMAZING!! My favorite by far. I had a lot of how to draw books as a kid and this one doesn't even come close to comparing. I HIGHLY suggest this to anyone. The book uses just basic shapes. I would like to buy more of Ed Emberley's drawing books! They are a great price and fun for the whole family. As soon as my daughter opened this gift on her birthday she drew for hours, she did not touch any of her other gifts until a couple of days later. It also has a large variety of animals in the book also! It is even fun for me to draw with it! My daughter who just turned five can follow along by herself and make her own drawing all by herself, she is so proud of herself and so am I. We have a quiet time in the house when I am laying my younger child down and this book has been great for that!

GREAT for beginning drawers!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 15, 2021

Verified Purchase

When raising my children I remember taking/using this book and creating my own drawing strips to illustrate how to follow steps in drawing animals. I would laminate the strips and give them to my children with blank long rectangular pieces of white paper and colored pencils. .The simple steps made it easy for them to follow, and they loved this activity!! I highly recommend this book! My only suggestion would be to make this same book but with a spiral binding so it lays flat and makes it easier for kids to draw without having to hold the book open.

Excellent Absorbing and wholesome playbook for kids.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 14, 2011

Verified Purchase

This is a nice wholesome, book for kids to enjoy which provides hundreds of fun, simple drawing templates , in step by step form, for fun depictions of animals, which are a little more caricature than purely realistic.

While at an adult friend's birthday party in a pub not so long back, I noticed someone's 7 year old daughter was engaged very quietly and productively in a drawing book on her own, and thought it would be a good and absorbing book for my own daughter ( who also happens to love animals- perhaps they all do?)

It has that slightly old school, 'sesame street'-ish charm to it which is uncomplicated, lo tech and fun.

Unlike some activity books which get written in, or the stickers used up etc, this book is designed to be copied onto your own paper so has the potential to be used again and again, and become a good 'go-to' book when you need to engage your child in something fun.

She has loved it right from the start so I can only recommend it.

Using to animate my writing

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 18, 2013

Verified Purchase

I bought this as and other books in the same series as I want to animate a children's story that I have written - I can't draw, but I had thought that drawing simple human faces and figures would be easy. I found that it was - however, with ththe "Faces" book I have already created a series of drawing of my main characters and as part of the story is set in a zoo, this book is proving to be very useful.

Suitable for even the most art-shy!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 7, 2013

Verified Purchase

I bought this as a Christmas present for my boss, renowned for her awful doodling skills. Ed Emberley breaks drawing animals down to the most basic of levels - maybe unlikely to impress the most creative people but it certainly amazed me with how simple drawing can be! Highly recommended for children and doodling adults alike!

Every parent and teacher should have this book - your children will be amazed at your ability to draw animals! It's such a lot of fun - suitable for children of any ability and for adults who want to illustrate and amuse. Brilliant!
