Customer Reviews

Effective Drawing Instructions For Kids! Recommended!

My son received a set of DRAW books as a gift when he was 8 and still uses them several times a month (he is now 12). We are fairly impressed with the results he is able to produce. The book takes the most simplistic approach to drawing, braking the process down to three steps (basic shapes, detailing, "cleaning up"). Each image includes 4 or 5 illustrations and the corresponding instructions presented in an easy to understand format. The "Tips" section is worth reading as well. Highly recommended! You might also be interested in Draw Really Cool Stuff, which contains this book and 5 others.

Draw Ocean Animals is a great book!

My son loves everything about the sea and the animals that inhabit it and he really enjoys this book. He has become very good at drawing these undersea creatures. He needed no help from me, the visual instructions were enough for him to jump right in and draw beautifully.

Replacing the copy my son fell in love with!

My mother purchased this book for my son for Christmas 2 years ago. He has this fascination with the ocean and loves to draw! We had a blast with this book! The pictures are VERY easy to do, and the direction....if you notice even down the to pressure of the pencil....this book is awesome!For my son - who is 9 - and me, who has taken many classes, this simplifies it.

Great step by step directions for awesome results!

My 7 year old daughter chose this book at her school book fair. She loves to draw, and with the step by step instructions in this book, her ocean creatures are great. People are always amazed at the drawings. We have tried other drawing books, without success. This book gets an A+. 10 year old big sister and her friends enjoy the book also. They are studying animals in 5th grade, and have a project to do on the different types. Each report must include a drawing of the animal they write about. This book has helped greatly with the fish. A fifth grade teacher was so impressed she asked me if I would order her this book and 4 other Draw titles by Peel Books. Thanks, from a very satisfied mom.
