Unique monsters -fun to draw

The Deltora series was a great read for my children, 6 and 10. It was fun to draw the monsters with the kids. They're unique monsters and the book fills in what was missing from our imaginations. The monsters were challenging for my 10 year old, quite difficult for my 6 year old. I end up doing most the drawing and they color the pictures. The diagrams are easy enough to follow. We just really loved the series and the drawing book was the "frosting on the cake".

WONDERFUL addition to any Deltora Quest collection!

My son has recently become very interested in drawing. Add that to his love of the Deltora Quest series, it made this book a MUST HAVE! He was even more thrilled with the book than I had hoped! Plus, it doesn't have just ONE drawing of each of the 10, but variations as well! Gorl, Soldeen, Vraal, Ak-Baba, Dragon, Gellick, The Glus and Reeah each have 3 variations, while the Sand Beast, needing more steps to draw, has none. But the cute Muddlet has a couple. My son was glad to finally know just what a Muddlet looks like! To top it off, the book is nice to look at, the colors used and the layout make it eye-catching and enjoyable. One of the best buys I've ever made!

Creative drawing that's cool!

This book is a great addition to your Deltora library. The illustrations are very cool and spark creativity in those who love to sketch. Simple step by step instructions with a fantasic outcome. You want this one!

Great inspiration for young artists.

The easy to follow steps have truly inspired my 7 year old. He's been drawing nonstop since we bought the book. The incredible images have helped him learn to add details to his drawings. He is a Deltora fan but I would recommend this book for any dragon and monster lover.
